It doesn't return ERR in urxvt, looks as if urxvt reports both the underline 
and block cursor as a normal cursor. I open nano, press INSERT twice and exit. 
This is the result I get no matter what cursor urxvt uses.

curs_set(0) = 1
curs_set(1) = 0
curs_set(0) = 1
curs_set(2) = 0
curs_set(2) = 2
curs_set(0) = 2
curs_set(1) = 0
curs_set(1) = 1
curs_set(0) = 1
