>Description:
The urxvt termcap entry that was added while fixing conf/117323 is monochrome, but the program supports 88 colours.
Thomas Dickey has suggested in [1] to use the following termcap snippet:
rxvt|rxvt terminal emulator (X Window System):\
:pa#64:Co#8:AF=\E[3%dm:AB=\E[4%dm:op=\E[39;49m:tc=rxvt-mono:
which adds colours to the defaults provided by the rxvt-mono entry.

>How-To-Repeat:
Log into a FreeBSD machine by running ssh(1) in urxvt(1). Start any ncurses program (well, any that uses colours) and notice that it is monochrome.
>Fix:
Add the termcap snippet from above to ~/.termcap, rinse, repeat.
