Subject:   2.2.8 make world fails due to termcap from remote system

I'm at work on a <cringe>Linux</cringe> box ssh-ing home to my
2.2.8-STABLE box doing a make world. After three hours, it fails
apparently due to trying to run "ex" and not recognizing my (remote)
terminal type:

    [...]
    uudecode < /usr/src/share/tabset/xerox1730-lm.uu
    uudecode < /usr/src/share/tabset/zenith29.uu
    ===> share/termcap
    ex - /usr/src/share/termcap/termcap.src < /usr/src/share/termcap/reorder > /dev/null
    ex: xterm-debian: unknown terminal type
    *** Error code 1


Debian Linux sets the terminal type to "xterm-debian" which noone else
on the planet understands, but this shouldn't affect a non-terminal-based
build of the world.  Right?
