I'm trying to subclass Ncurses::WINDOW but it just seems to hijack my
class.  My subclass' initialize never gets called.   I can't add any new
methods.

# cat test
#!/usr/bin/ruby
begin
  require 'rubygems'
rescue LoadError
ensure
  require 'ncurses'
end

class MyClass < Ncurses::WINDOW

  def initialize(arbstring)
    puts lkjlkdsf # this should generate an error
  end

end

Ncurses.initscr

begin
  foo = MyClass.new(10,10,0,0)
ensure
  Ncurses.endwin
end

puts foo.class  # this should return MyClass

# ./test
=> Ncurses::Window



Two things wrong.
-initialize never gets called.  If it did "puts lkjlkdsf" would generate an
error.

-"puts foo.class" returns Ncurses::WINDOW where I would expect MyClass.

As a side note, Ncurses::WINDOW doesn't even exist until Ncurses.initscr is
called.  Perhaps it's dynamic nature is getting in the way?
