The curses module does not reset curses.COLS and curses.LINES when the terminal is resized.

I've reviewed this patch and I believe it to be the correct patch. I believe it would be prudent to add a test case for this. I'm unable to attach, but here is a link to a patch for that: http://scottdial.com/python-dev/curses-test.patch

I'm still able to reproduce this bug with Python 2.5.1. The following script always gives the same size:

import curses

while True:
	scr = curses.initscr()
	print curses.LINES, curses.COLS
	scr.getch()
	scr.getch()
	curses.endwin()

Updating LINES and COLS is done in curses.resize_term() and curses.resizeterm(), so you have to call one of those functions.
