touble..."of late". What do you mean?
1) when you were using your reconstructed xterm-color definition from
ncurses-5.2, and the cygwin-xfree XFree86-4.2.0 xterm.exe, or
2) in the last 12 hours when using the XFree86-4.2.0-derived xterm-color
definition from terminfo-5.2-3?
e.g. is this a bug report for terminfo-5.2-3?
