My original problem was:

This last message is the key. Most of the Widget set has calls to 'chgat'
like this:
$dwh->chgat($y, $x, $length, A_STANDOUT,
select_colour(@$conf{qw(FOREGROUND BACKGROUND)}), 0);
When all these calls are corrected to drop the null arg, like so:
$dwh->chgat($y, $x, $length, A_STANDOUT,
select_colour(@$conf{qw(FOREGROUND BACKGROUND)}));
the problem is solved.
Sincere thanks to Ekki Plicht and bzipitidoo for helpful comments.
