Thomas,

(thank you for maintaining ncurses for so long.)

But this precisely is the point i do not understand. If i call '_nc_freeall' 
under
the obligation not to call any ncurses routine again, how on earth could this
change the semantics?

Likely, keeping track of the allocated items, as needed for '_nc_freeall' to do
its work, is also something that should be absolutely transparent for the items
themselves. So no semantics should be affected either by the 'debugging'
mode as far as storage is concerned.

So '_nc_freeall' (which is a storage policy thingy, IMO) and semantic changing
debugging features got mixed, or what is it?


Kind regards,
  Lars
