At this point, I'd check if less is using that entry
(ktrace or truss should be able to show the open's on the termcap database,
for instance).

Also, I seem to recall some discussion about less' -X (--no-init)
option.  It's possible that someone's patched "less" for FreeBSD
to make that -X option more or less permanent.  That would be
consistent with omitting ti/te from the termcap.
