I do not know if this will help any, but Googling for Holub w/ curses
showed a form of curses by Larry Gensch. Part of the header is below:

/*
 *  Module	curses		(Hopefully) machine-independant curses
library.
 *  Author	larry gensch, ESQ
 *
 *  Note:   The inspiration for this module was an article by
 *	    Allen I. Holub in Dr. Dobbs Journal C Chest column.
 *	    Extensive modifications were made by larry gensch
 *	    to make the module conform to System V curses.

In trying to get to koders.com for the URL, I ran into timeout troubles.
FWIW, here is the URL:
http://www.koders.com/c/fidA5F4EA663BA9236FA51022CBBF5C2C662BA77ACB.aspx
Note that the code is 1667 lines long.
