Only inch()/mvinch() are affected. inchstr()/inchnstr() are not exposed by
the module, and getbkgd() already round-trips. The write side needs no
change: ncurses stores each cell as a wchar_t on a wide build, so the
asymmetry is purely on readback. UTF-8 locales remain unsupported for
inch().
thanks (I assume "module" in this comment refers to python)
Yes. Sorry, that slipped through because the bugs were found during the
development of the Python module. But they also appear in pure C.
