curses: do not setlocale() at import time (issue5261)
setlocale() can break date formatting/parsing functions because they are
locale dependent. We should avoid doing setlocale() as possible.
This patch moves setlocale() just before curses.wrapper(), which function
is documented to "initialize curses." I don't know the details about the
curses initialization, but I *think* this would work as well.
Maybe we can extract a curses setup function later.
