The bug report doesn't mention the version of ncurses (though there was
a related bug fix a while back), and downloading ncmpc to inspect it, I
see it's linking against libncurses rather than libncursesw.

Looking at ncurses changelog, the related-bug fix I recall seems to be this

20070512
        + add 'O' (wide-character panel test) in ncurses.c to demonstrate a
          problem reported by Sadrul H Chowdhury with repainting parts of
          a fullwidth cell.

Odds are it's not a problem with ncurses.
