     49   1.1     lukem 	entry, which will then be ignored by libterm.  As xterm modifies the
     50   1.1     lukem 	exported termcap, this would cause those modifications to be ignored.

    108  1.38  junyoung 	is due to use of type casting in a non-standard way in the code and

    110  1.38  junyoung 	applied is imported this should be backed out.
