I asked on bug-ncurses mailing list and Thomas Dickey suggests "improving the python curses binding to handle the newer terminal descriptions". Looks like that requires non-trivial efforts. On the other hand, I've also found a workaround:

$ TERM=xterm python -m test -u curses -v test_curses

(or anything without -256color suffix for $TERM)

How about setting TERM=xterm in tests and documenting that CPython does not support new terminal descriptions for now?
