I am not sure if they are the same, but it seems so:
A make world with /usr/obj NFS mounted worked up to the point where
the termcap was built. Now only the error is slightly different:
A few months ago, cap_mkdb exited with SIG 11, now it succeeds but generates
the wrong file. I think it's the same bug. The SEGV maybe have gone away
because of some library reordering over the months.
