	How can I discourage SYSV curses from using delete char on long
lines instead of just doing clear to eol?  I'm hitting a situation where
curses is scrolling the screen up (by one line) by deleting every character
on every line individually.
	The program in question is tn3270, and the OS is HP-UX 7.05.  It's 
politically impossible to change the terminfo entries.
