Title:
  invalid behavior of curses.newpad().refresh()

Status in “python3.2” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  There is invalid behavior of builtin curses module in amd64 version
  python3.2.

  From API spec, `refresh()` method of a window object returned by
  `curses.newpad(h,w)` should accept 6 arguments; `pad.refresh(pt, pl,
  st, sl, sb, sr)`.

  - http://docs.python.org/py3k/library/curses.html#curses.newpad

  But python3.2 package in amd64 ubuntu precise does not accept
  arguments.

  [bug occured snippet: newpad-refresh.py]
  ##########################################
  import curses

  try:
      screen = curses.initscr()
      curses.cbreak()

      pad = curses.newpad(10, 10)
      pad.addstr(0, 0, "press q")
      size = screen.getmaxyx()
      pad.refresh(0, 0, 0, 0, size[0] - 1, size[1] - 1)
      while True:
          ch = pad.getch()
          if ch == ord("q"):
              break
          pass
      pass
  finally:
      curses.nocbreak()
      curses.endwin()
      pass

  The code is worked well on python2.7 pakcage and self compiled python3.2.3.
  There may be a package build problem at python3.2 or ncurses.
