Can someone running version 8 of HP-UX answer this question for me?

Is HP-UX version 8's curses the 'new' AT&T curses?  This is the version
that supports alternate character sets. It is easy to ascertain whether
this new version is available by looking for several macro definitions
in /usr/include/curses.h which contain 'ACS_' (Alternate Character Set)
definitions.

Could someone with v8 of HP-UX check this for me?

Thanks very much.
