Curses question

I am trying to write a curses program on systems that run on termcap
(I'm used to terminfo). I've tried many times to have a '^L'
clear and refresh the screen with the following code with no success :
clearok (win,TRUE);
wrefresh (win);
The exact same code works on terminfo. I've tried this on a 4.1BSD
and a 3.0 USG (I think that's what it's called).
The only way I've been able to force a refresh is :
clear();
refresh();
touchwin (win);
wrefresh (win);
Is that the only way to do it or am I doing something wrong ?
Another question, how do I deal with ^Z on BSD systems ?
All I get is a segment fault when I try to foreground the curses program.
