Bug#360939: found the problem

[David Pashley]

It appears the problem is caused by 20_restricted_region_readjustment.patch. 
When I removed that patch curses programs started working again on the
third tab.

I've included a simple ncurses program to show you the problem. Compile
with gcc ncurses.c -lncurses -std=c99 -o vte-bug-demo
You can then run bte-bug-demo. You should get numbers going all the way
down the screen, but when the bug manifests itself it starts scrolling
at line 24.
