(This gave rise to bug #59178, so the call of wipe_statusbar() has been removed again.  It doesn't matter as NetBSD uses ncurses nowadays -- and I don't know how to force nano to build against another curses.)

The offending commit is 90bd25c1 -- the commit that makes help texts searchable (in other words: the commit that makes the help text into an almost normal buffer).

To reproduce, compile nano on NetBSD and run:

  src/nano --ignore --nohelp

and type: ^G ^G.

Result: the bottom line (the one with ^L Refresh, etcetera) is not wiped blank.

Version 2.8.1 is still unaffected, but 2.8.2 is affected.
