>Description:
	The termcap entries for vt100 and vt220 (and probably others)
	include neither :bc=: nor :bs:, thereby coredumping
	/usr/games/snake and telling other, more careful, programs that
	the terminals cannot backspace.
>How-To-Repeat:
	Read /usr/src/share/termcap/termcap.src, or go run
	/usr/games/snake with TERM set to vt100 or vt220 and figure out
	why it coredumps.
>Fix:
	Add :bs:, since the terminals can backspace with \b.

	Alternatively, if the capabilities are so obsolete that NetBSD
	wishes to drop support for them, fix snake to assume \b.
