I didn't notice that in your earlier message (which is odd, but my
attention was on the content of the terminal description rather than
the aliases -- but I don't have that email here for reference).
But as you present it, that's an error - a termcap typically has a
2-character abbreviation, but must have an alias to match the value given
in $TERM.

...depending on how it recovered. But the first time you configured,
you said you'd used /etc/termcap, which (if ncurses was not able to
find the proper terminfo) would have been translated to $HOME/.terminfo
(but see my faq for that).
