Or started, depending how you look at it :-)
Here's the recipe to get the old behaviour back:
dump entry:
infocmp > /tmp/xterm.info
edit to remove rmcup and smcup settings
for csh/tcsh
setenv TERMINFO ~/.terminfo
for other shells
TERMINFO=$HOME/.terminfo
export TERMINFO
then:
mkdir $TERMINFO
tic /tmp/xterm.info (after editing)
Make sure you set the environment variable TERMINFO in your login scripts.
