 The following diff fixes most of the table related warnings of
 terminfo.5, but the file is still on the vendor branch, so I won't
 commit anything to it until I get approval from Peter, who seems to
 have done most of the commits in the area.
 
 Peter, does this look ok?  Should we commit it or is it better to send a
 notice to Tom Dickey instead, to see if this is already fixed in his
 source tree?

 Note: In nroff mode, the terminal width is too short to fit the table
 and there are still far too many annoying warnings about lines that
 cannot be broken:
