Hmmm, i really don't know what to think about this. It is correct, that
there is _much_ software out there which has a hardcoded 1024 byte limit
for a termcap entry. But a termcap entry can be much larger than 1024
bytes. So - is there a 1024 size limit for termcap entries specified
somewhere ?

Don't misunderstand me. I just want a clean solution. If there is a limit
of 1024 bytes per entry specified somewhere (implicit or explicit), pcvt's
termcap entry should be stripped down to 1024 bytes.
