Sadly, it doesn't.
I followed the instructions, and I am using the vt100-color TERM
now; however, I still get the longer error message with emacs
-nw.
If I follow the advice in the error message and 'unset TERMCAP',
then trying emacs -nw kicks back the shorter error message:
emacs: Cannot open termcap database file
Quickly checking a su -, I notice that root's resulting
enviroment doesn't include a TERMCAP value. Aha.
So, does anyone have any further pointers here?
