What's notable is that I need the curses.A_BOLD or it still won't show 
up.  That implies that the normal white, this scenario, just won't show 
up on my terminal.  I thought that maybe it's just using the default 
text color and since my default color is black, it didn't show up.  But 
no... I can change the terminal text color to whatever I want and it 
still won't show up without the patch.

Can I take the lack of responses to mean that nobody else sees this? 
Maybe nobody else uses OpenSUSE?
