Thank you!

Then it's quite safe to get rid of these.  They are so old and obscure
that they can't have a significant number of users (If they didn't make
it to /etc/termcap in the '80s/'90's it means they were not used much).  
We stopped supporting a lot of old systems a number of years ago, so IMO
these should go the same way.
