Woof.
Are you using an xterm? Are you using a version of X11 other than
XFree86 3.3? If so, you were probably hosed by the recent change to
/usr/share/termcap which pointed 'xterm' at 'xterm-xf86-v33'. Point
'xterm' at something more reasonable, then rebuild and reinstall
/usr/share/misc/termcap{,.db}.
