Description fjoe 1999-09-10 14:40:02 UTC 
	ncurses-based programs (ee, midc, pdmenu) hang with 100% CPU usage when
	telnet (ssh, whatever) connection is closed ungracefully.

Fix: apply this fix against /usr/src/lib/libncurses
How-To-Repeat: 
	open telnet session to some host
	run 'ee'
	press ^[
	enter 'close'
	open telnet session again and check 'top' output. you will see
	'ee' at the top eating all the available CPU time.
