ISC xtermcap bug

[Robert Lin]

I've found what appears to be a bug in ISC 2.0.2's xtermcap library.
It will not properly read a termcap entry that starts with a backslash
(octal escaped entry). For example, the entry GV=\63 would return as
NULL by tgetstr, whereas in truth it should return a "3" string.

Does anyone know of a public domain termcap library (with source of course)
that works right? If so, please point me in the right direction.
