it's odd because you have to (in general) use ^R to reload the page,
forcing it to be rendered again.

complicating this - some systems will return from wgetch (or equivalent)
on SIGWINCH, and some won't - it's beyond our control afaik.

I've mostly used it on Linux (which does return), but can test on FreeBSD
(which iirc, doesn't).  It doesn't on Solaris, and used to on SunOS (though
that seems to not work as well under 4.1.3 as under 4.1.1).
