New submission from Serhiy Storchaka:

Most curses.ascii predicates corresponds C functions declared in <ctype.h>. But 
there are some differences:

1. isblank() returns True for space and backspace instead of space and tab.

2. ispunct() returns True for non-ASCII and control characters.

3. iscntrl() returns False for '\x7f'. Note that there is different function 
isctrl().

These differences look as bugs. Proposed patch fixes them and adds tests for 
all curses.ascii functions.
