>Originator:     Heikki Suonsivu
>Release:        FreeBSD 2.0-BUILT-19950507 i386
>Organization:
Helsinki University of Technology, Finland
>Environment:

	FreeBSD current (at most a week old), bash, zsh and tcsh
binaries from older FreeBSD 1.1.5.1 system, but they may be from 1.1
ages.

>Description:

	bash, zsh and tcsh print "Termcap entry too long" when setting
terminal type to vt102 (or larger like vt220).  I don't know when this
changed and why, I recompiled the shells on FreeBSD 2 and they work
now.

>How-To-Repeat:

	I guess this happens if you take binary from FreeBSD 1 and try
to run on it FreeBSD 2 with compatibility shlibs installed.

>Fix:
	
Recompile the stuff.  I guess this isn't dangerous, just wondering
what has changed and will it affect other programs too (none noticed
yet)?

binary incompatibility problem between FreeBSD 1.x and FreeBSD 2.x 
that recompiling applications under new environment solves
