Sorry to bug you guys with this, but I didn't save the
answer for this one, and it just started happening to me.

I upgraded to termcap-2.0.8, per the suggestion in
Documentation/CHANGES, and now "console" and "linux"
terms cannot run vi. I get "termcap entry too long", and
vi comes up in single line mode. I tried downgrading back to
termcap-2.0.5, but that still does the same thing. It used
to work.

What was the fix, again?
