test_curses fails on MacOS X 10.3.

I'm seeing two failures:

The call to curses.curs_set at line 143 (in module_funcs) fails (that 
is raises curses.error), which the test doesn't expect.  

The test for curses.use_default_colors() (also in module_funcs) 
also fails. curses.has_colors() is False, which probably explains 
why use_default_colors fails.

The attached patch adds a try block around the call to 
curses.curs_set and reindents the test for 
curses.use_default_colors().

WARNING: I've never used curses.

I've guarded the call to curs_set by tigetstr("cnorm"), based on a 
suggestion by mwh.

Actually, I think you uploaded the same patch twice, but I've done 
what I suggested anyway :-)
