[Bug 371384] [NEW] "wrong argument type" error when calling stdscr methods

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: libncurses-ruby1.9

Release: Ubuntu 9.04 (64bit)
Package: libncurses-ruby1.9 1.1-3

Ruby ncurses programs do not work with ruby1.9 as soon as a method on
stdscr is called. To reproduce run the rain.rb example of the package's
example directory. This is what happens:

% ruby1.9 rain.rb
/usr/lib/ruby/1.9.0/ncurses.rb:75:in `nodelay': wrong argument type Ncurses::WINDOW (expected true) (TypeError)
        from /usr/lib/ruby/1.9.0/ncurses.rb:75:in `method_missing'
        from rain.rb:195:in `<main>'

Expected behavior is of course the non-occurrence of this error upon
calling a method on Ncurses.stdscr.

** Affects: ncurses-ruby (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: New
