To the best of my knowledge, it is not even a little bit easy for us to
add terminal entries to the ones provided on Solaris, though I may be
wrong about that.
(I believe /etc/termcap is only there for compatibility with SunOS 4.x
binaries. The primary terminal type database is the terminfo database
in /usr/share/lib/terminfo.)
Manually setting TERM to "xtermc" may be a valid workaround which
doesn't sacrifice color, but I can't test it against OSX.
