All the ncurses examples run, but not in color, so there's clearly
something going wrong with OSX or my terminal. Curses wont initialize
any color pair, so it's seems to be a problem with curses on OSX not
sup.

If I remember correctly, the Apple Terminal program identified itself as
"xterm-color". This has caused me problems in the past. Changing it to
simply "xterm" has fixed it for me with no loss of functionality.

Sup works for me, in colour, in Terminal.app. $TERM is set to xterm-color. I'm using ncurses 5.6 from MacPorts.
I get the same results as you in irb. Does curses normally work there?

This suggests that ncurses doesn't want to work. Not knowing too much
about MacOS, are you missing some ncurses libraries? Have you installed
the ncurses ruby gem? Are you able to run any other ncurses apps from
that terminal? (For example, the ncurses gem comes with a couple example
.rb files. Do they work?)
