In order to enable "awn-curves", which is technically an easter egg, you need to use "Configuration Editor" AKA gconf-editor to set the configuration key /apps/avant-window-navigator/bar/bar_angle to -1.

There is a caveat: this easter egg does not work with applets (issues with IPC and speed), which is why it's not a documented feature.
