You shouldn't be building new binaries which link against libtermcap (i.e. this should never happen) - it's only there for existing binaries which would be linked against libc.so.3 also (both of which are under compat/) and should continue to work.

Yeah, okay- thanks! apparently the symlink to libncuruses works- so old X11 binaries work with libc.so.3 in /usr/lib/compat Whew! THanks! I didn't wanna have to rebuild all that goop...
