> I'm not sure how we can use termcap or curses without mounting /usr.

This is really a non-issue since if you get a NULL value back from
tgetstr(), you just fall back to not providing color.  Simple.  Those
people who have color-capable termcap entries and /usr mounted can see
the full technicolor ls(1), capable of blinding dogs at 50 feet and
frightening small children, and those who don't, won't.
