ncurses_bkgdset
I've found several undocumented constants, that are very useful to create borders manually:
ACS_ULCORNER
ACS_LLCORNER
ACS_URCORNER
ACS_LRCORNER
ACS_LTEE
ACS_RTEE
ACS_BTEE
ACS_TTEE
ACS_HLINE
ACS_VLINE
ACS_PLUS
ACS_S1
ACS_S9
ACS_DIAMOND
ACS_CKBOARD
ACS_DEGREE
ACS_PLMINUS
ACS_BULLET
ACS_LARROW
ACS_RARROW
ACS_DARROW
ACS_UARROW
ACS_BOARD
ACS_LANTERN
ACS_BLOCK
They all work in UTF8 terminal...

In addition to the lack of ncurses_wborder() documentation.
There is also the lack of the getyx function..
it is different than the getxy function I wrote (and posted to the main ncurses docs page on php.net) to get the max X and max Y values, instead it gives you your current Y and X values.
ncurses_getyx($z, $y, $x);// where $z = a window handle...
# the $y and $x are handed back as globals.
# so beware of using this in a function where you might be
# looping through any variable using those.
# do a 'man getyx' to see.
