There is also a way to use the /usr/lib/pinentry-curses that is linked against 
the Sun libcurses.

The program supports a -c option to set colors where you must provide a comma 
(,) separated list of curses colors.

If you set colors like : /usr/lib/pinentry-curses -c "white,black,cyan" 
and of course gpgconf --kill all, to kill gpg-agent, then it displays fine 
(using curses, not ncurses).

Anyway this looks like a really old bug ... the header file of pinentry-curses 
is (c) 2002 so this is probably already a longtime the behavior of 
pinentry-curses.

It doesn't seem hard to fix if the GnuPG developers would download an 
OpenIndiana ISO, install it, and test it.
