 I started that PR. Subsequently there was a short discussion off-list where
 it turned out that Warner Losh had a compact termcap file which could be
 committed - it's attached below. However nothing further happened.
 
 Anybody care to commit it? I guess some rescue/Makefile magic needs updating
 to install it in the right place.
 
 Regards,
 
 Brian.

 BTW, the one I gave you also has vt200/vt100/vt102 and friends in it
 because those are very popular emulations.  xterm for when you're
 logged into the serial port via an X terminal, and cons25* for the
 console.  Oh, and dosansi and ansi for the brave.  I think it is a
 reasonable thing to install.  It is only 3k.  There's a
 /etc/termcap.small also which is just under 8k which also wouldn't be
 bad.
