This substitution I've now removed. But your problems seems to be that
there is no "xterm" entry in /etc/termcap while curses uses termlib
and termlib has an "xterm" entry file under AIX. But retry with the
latest "tcsh" version from CURRENT: it prefers termlib before termcap
and should implicitly solve this problem, too.
