I first reported it to openssl-dev and then rt. No replies :-(

I also reported that 0.9.6h compiles with the same setup.

About the PDCurses problems I reported, I added the following
to my index.html:

Most problems with my ABNT2 keyboard are fixed in PDCurses 2.6,
but:

´ + a produces a space instead of á. A workaround (?) is to set
Display character set in the Options menu from Western
(ISO-8859-1) to IBM PC US codepage (cp437).

But then I noticed ISO-8859-1 (the default) doesn't recognize
accents. Maybe I should remove it ? Any other suggestions ?
Make cp437 the default in my Borland builds ?

Shift + 6 + vowel produces ^¨. So, ¨ + e produces ^ë instead of
ë.

Not a major problem. I can always remove ^.

In Window, ( and ) may sometimes output as < and > if using
Raster Fonts. No problem in Full Screen (press Alt+Enter).
Input is correct. A workaround (?) is to use Lucida Console.

I added "may sometimes" because I couldn't reproduce it.

I also noticed mouse only works in Full Screen and I can't use
Shift to select any text. PDCurses limitation ?

Anyway, 2.6 the keyboard part is much better.
