Here's a patch that simply reverses the getmouse and ungetmouse calls in the test, ensuring that getmouse actually has something to get.  This fixes the test_curses failure for me on Ubuntu 10.10, and doesn't seem to introduce new failures where test_curses was previously working (on OS X 10.6.4, for example).

Barry, do you want me to apply this to 2.6.6, to give us another green buildbot or two?  Or is it not worth it?
