Due to dirty programming of cgetent() routine, it simple add each tc= hop to existing entry, so it can easily overrun stupid 1024 limit while clean entry is far below this limit. It cause progam memory corruption after tgenent(). New termlib code cleans entry as mach as possible and not corrupt memory but return -1 instead. I add many missing capabilities to vt100/102/220 entries, so old tgetent can easily corrupt memory on tc= hops, to avoid it re-build & re-install termlib library before installing termcap. -- Andrey A.
