You're probably using xterm, right?
What you see as 'v' character is in fact down-arrow (ACS_DARROW in ncurses
terminology), which is a hint for the user that this button (or text-field) is
expandable - MenuButton or ComboBox. xterm for some reason does not display
down-arrow as a real arrow but uses placeholder 'v' character instead. If you
set TERM=linux or use urxvt terminal emulator (TERM=rxvt) you will see correct
characters.
I don't know why this is happening, if it is an error of xterm, font, or
ncurses library, but it has certainly nothing to do with my code (because I
want explicitly ACS_DARROW there and I'm not getting it anyway ;-) ).
Investigating ...
