This is quite applicable. I just now got around to reading it
(should've done this before I sent my previous Email). Yep, that's the
exact problem:
/usr/bin/dialog:
libdialog.so.5 => /usr/lib/libdialog.so.5 (0x3807e000)
libncurses.so.6 => /lib/libncurses.so.6 (0x38099000)
libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0x380dd000)
At least I have a workaround with NCURSES_NO_UTF8_ACS=1. :-)
