Broken curses?

Alright, back to curses...  I have here a problem with my curse(d)s windows.
In two programs I'm working on curses refuses to scroll.  The bottom line
of the windows will just be written over, and no scrolling occurs.  The 
TERM is vt100.  Scrollok has been set TRUE.  What am I missing?  

Is there a known problem with curses scrolling like this? (I don't remember.)

The curses is 4.3BSD (4.2BSD and Venix/11 2.0 also).  The program itself
is rather simple, so no wierd stuff is going on.  Just initscr, crmode, nonl,
noecho, newwin, waddstr and refresh.  Everything works fine until
the last line is reached in the window.

Help.
