I'll have to deal with that anyway, since I'm doing all my own wrapping,
justification and clipping of text.  (don't talk to me about RtoL text,
I'm getting to it)

I'm going to look at the Mined text editor for some terminal behavior
detection code.  Mined is able to produce good UTF-8 output on a variety
of terminals, and it links agains ncurses, not ncursesw...  Interesting.
