Results of `cd /usr/include; grep wstand *.h':

tcap.h:# define	wstandout(win)	CURVOID(wattron(win,A_STANDOUT))
tcap.h:# define	wstandend(win)	CURVOID(wattroff(win,A_STANDOUT))
tinfo.h:		scrollok(), wstandend(), wstandout(); 
tinfo.h:#define	standend()	wstandend(stdscr)
tinfo.h:#define	standout()	wstandout(stdscr)
tinfo.h:#define wstandend(win)		wattrset((win),A_NORMAL)
tinfo.h:#define wstandout(win)		wattron((win),A_STANDOUT)

The new curses simply defines wstand* as wattron/wattroff macros.

[ Jonathan, I expected less obvious problems from _you_ :-) :-) ]
