function keys do not work

[Folkert van Heusden]

Hi,

I do:

        keypad(stdscr, TRUE);

<...>

        int c = getch();

        if (c == KEY_F(1))
        {
                /* do something */
        }

now it seems c never is KEY_F(1) when I press F1!
This problem occurs under macos x and linux, on solaris it works fine
(linux and solaris tested from a putty window).

Linux (does not work):
 - /lib/libncurses.so.5.5
 - debian package: 5.5-5

MacOS X (does not work):
 - /usr/lib/libncurses.5.4.dylib

Solaris 10 (DOES work):
 - /usr/local/lib/libncurses.so.5.4
