Oh, okay.  Choose the former.  UNIX System V no longer supports termcap.
We continue to use it in our System V emulation on 4BSD, where it is
documented under TERMCAP(4).  (The native 4BSD version is TERMCAP(5),
same except for some extremely minor tweaks.)  This "manual section"
notation is creaking at the seams, more so since AT&T decided to change
theirs midstream.  The SVID method (BA_OS etc.) would be good except I
think they introduced too many categories.
