>Description:
        The xterm entry in NetBSD's termcap has a `vi' and `vs' entry, which
        ncurses' terminfo is missing.  This caused a certain program to complain
        because curs_set(0) return ERR.
>How-To-Repeat:

------------------- test.c ---------------------
#include <ncurses.h>

int
main(void)
{
        int x;

        initscr();
        x = curs_set(0);
        endwin();
        printf("x = %i\n", x);
        return 0;
}
-------------------------------------------

Compile and link with ncurses.  When you run it under xterm ($TERM=xterm),
it says `x = -1' (and -1 is ERR, meaning the function failed).
Change `ncurses.h' to `curses.h' and compile and link with curses.  When you
run it under xterm again, it will now say `x = 1'.

>Fix:

Trivial fix:
