I asume that this "bug fix" now introduced the same kind of annoinganf
buggy behavior with less that is known for a long time between Linux and
Solaris.
If you log into Linux from a Solaris machine using xterm, you will see many
annoying underlines, partially going over whole lines if you use man(1)
together with less.
This is caused by the fact that Linux uses xterm-r6 for a while together
with a terminfo entry that depends on features that are nut present in
earlier xterm versions as used on Solaris. If Solaris now has xterm-r6 and
a similar terminfo entry for "xterm" as Linux being a hard link to xterm-r6,
this "bug fix" definitely introduces a bug.
