I believe there was a discussion of this a while ago, and the theory was
that a race condition existed such that the engine thread could shutdown
before the UI thread. It looks like Eugene modified things back in
November so that the UI is the main thread (rather than the lyntin
engine), meaning this should no longer happen. I just tried out cursesui
and I no longer get the error. You may want to try the latest from CVS.
