NetBSD thinkpad 10.0_RC6 NetBSD 10.0_RC6 (THINKPAD) #0: Tue Mar 26 18:20:30 EDT 2024  rob@thinkpad:/usr/src_netbsd-10/arch/amd64/compile/THINKPAD amd64
>Description:
If you suspend vi with Control-Z and then resume it with fg, the cursor blinks whereas before it was suspended it did not.
>How-To-Repeat:
Open an xterm
Run vi
Notice the cursor is not blinking
Type Ctrl-Z to suspend vi
Type fg to resume vi
Notice that the cursor is blinking

Note that this does not happen in a VT.
>Fix:
I would guess that either some terminfo settings are incorrect or vi doesn't use them correctly.
