broken ncurses on python 3.0

OS: win32, python 3.0

I've been trying to run some curses demos and I get this:

C:\Python\Lib\curses>python textpad.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "textpad.py", line 3, in <module>
    import curses
  File "C:\Python\lib\curses\__init__.py", line 15, in <module>
    from _curses import *
ImportError: No module named _curses

The C:\Python\include does not have the curses.h header.
Reinstalling from the x86 msi binary doesn't do it.

Any ideas on how to get this working? maybe it's just the w32 version
that missed ncurses
