I've not had any success tracking the cause of this failure down, and no longer 
have the resources to do so.  It does appear that curses itself is broken on 
FreeBSD:  it's not just a problem with the tests.

Adding Andrew Kuchling to the nosy in case he has any ideas what's wrong here.

Since the test_curses crash is currently aborting the test run, and so 
preventing us from getting feedback from the other tests on the FreeBSD 
buildbots, I propose that test_curses be skipped with a "the curses module is 
broken on FreeBSD" message.
