This baffled me, as well.  Does the reason involve bit-field width?

By the way, look at what my Python installation does when just *pressing* 
button 5 (mouse wheel down) after calling `curses.mousemask()`:

```
_curses.error: getmouse() returned ERR
```

The curses program then crashes with an exit code of 1.

```
