Binaries linked to libc.so.2.2 and libtermcap.so.2.1 still fail, because
ld.so prefers libtermcap.so.2.2 to libtermcap.so.2.1 and libtermcap.so.2.2
sometimes calls issetugid() which isn't in libc.so.2.2.  This can be fixed
by bumping the major number of libtermcap and either
- removing all versions of libtermcap.so.2.* that call issetugid(), i.e.,
  libtermcap.so.2.2 and recent intermediate versions of libtermcap.so.2.1,
  or
- changing libtermcap.so.2.2 to not use issetugid() and waiting for everyone
  to install it before bumping the major version number.  This seems best.
