The 4.3 version of the termcap library supports such additions as having
a TERMPATH envrionment variable and the ability to look up in a users
$HOME/.termcap file entries for termcaps. I just looked quickly at the
code, and we there should be no problems. The above abilities would be
useful if you have a terminal which has some extra features that the
termcap entry does not know about so that you can then make additions to
the termcap for one's odd machine. (Like the machine I have at home)
