I downloaded it with apt-get source, which applied a patch, built it and ran 
the test program. It doesn't have a menu F. I reconfigured with 
--enable-widec and got an F menu. I ran the A menu and got this:
Key pressed: 0431 ę = 0x119 (printable character)
Key pressed: 0431 KEY_F(17)
(I had to type that in manually! ncurses grabs all mouse clicks and I can't 
highlight even if I stop it.)
The first one is "e" with ogonek (a Polish nasal vowel); the second is 
shift-F5.
