cursesmodule

I have run into a problem when using the "somewhat new" cursesmodule.
import curses,traceback,time
try:
stdscr=curses.initscr()
stdscr.addch(0,0,curses.ACS_ULCORNER)
for i in range(40):
stdscr.addch(0,i+1,curses.ACS_HLINE)
stdscr.addch(0,42,curses.ACS_URCORNER)
stdscr.refresh()
time.sleep(3)
curses.endwin()
except:
curses.endwin()
traceback.print_exc()
*I know that there are other ways to display the top portion of a box
but this example is used for discussion.
When I use the included cursesmodule that came with 1.5.2 the above
code displays as expected. But when I use the new cursesmodule it
displays all ACS_* characters as "^@". I have not found any other
anomolies with the new cursesmodule. Any ideas would be appreciated.
TIA,
Jon
