As far as I can see, /rescue/vi reads the following termcap files:

$HOME/.termcap
$HOME/.termcap.db
/usr/share/misc/termcap.db

So copying /usr/share/misc/termcap.db to /root/.termcap.db works, at
least for single user.  Note the termcap files do reference some other
stuff under /usr/share/tabset, but it doesn't seem to matter much.
