This should be fixed (thanks to jweiss for the patch; I also fixed
telnetd to work with "athena-netbsd.dialup.mit.edu").

This will take some debugging.  (It's a relatively straightforward
matter of comparing the Decstation termcap entry to the NetBSD termcap
entry and seeing what makes a difference.)  If you can bring your aaa
into the SIPB office on a weekend, I can take a look at it.

I can't reproduce this problem.  My guess is that you have a TEXFONTS
or other tex environment variable which references
/usr/athena/lib/tex/fonts and doesn't have a colon at the end.

(I need to coordinate with Craig about tex; I seem to remember vague
rumors that he wanted to move tex into a locker at some point.  If
not, we should eventually do a tex build for the NetBSD sipb-athena
port so that NetBSD looks like all the other platforms.)
