This is something in the termcap / termlib / ncurses library. I'd say
if the file-transfer display still works OK (which is really the only
things that uses curses, except a few commands like CLEAR SCREEN), then
it's nothing to worry about.

I'm told that these are nothing to worry about either. We've always had
tons of warnings when building with the security libraries and header files,
yet the features still work OK when used. Still, it would be nice avoid the
warnings.
A more serious issue has to do with the total replacement of DES functions
in OpenSSL in recent Fedora issues.
Anybody with knowledge in these areas who might want to lend a hand is
most welcome!
