you're right: before the current breakage, fix-header only `fixed'
curses.h, but even this is unnecessary.  Even more confusing, if I run
fix-header with verbose set to 1 and my tracing of function declarations,
all necessary declarations are found:

curses.h: OK, nothing needs to be done.

I have no idea why the header is modifed nonetheless.

On the other hand, there seems to be no mechanism to inhibit running
fix-header/fixproto on specific platforms.
