Okay, so I was confused by phk@'s statement in usr.sbin/Makefile
that sysinstall is not buildable on sparc64. Apparently he just
forgot to re-enable it after libdisk has been fixed to support
sparc64. Nevertheless, my change was good at least for these
two reasons:
1. It allowed jake@ to notice and re-enable sysinstall in
usr.sbin/Makefile.
2. Native releases prior to this came with rtermcap.o in the
source distribution.
