Seems the xterm and xterm-color termcap entries were fixed in
5-CURRENT about two months ago by importing T Dickey's terminal
definitions from X.org.  That fixed a few other bugs and made xterm
and xterm-color aliases for the same terminal type.  Although CVS has
a comment 'MFC after: 3 days' it never has been...
