New submission from Serhiy Storchaka <storchaka+cpyt...@gmail.com>:

The name and the version of the curses library are needed for work around bugs 
in old versions or skip tests on platforms that provide broken curses library 
(like OpenBSD providing ncurses 5.7).

The curses and _curses modules provide the attribute "version" (= b'2.2'), but 
this is just a version of the module.
