I'm tring to build emacs on a 68030 with System V.3 provided by
Motorola and using ksh as my shell.  I'm using s-usg5-3.h and m-news.h
which was modified to use C_ALLOCA.  All compiling works, but when
temacs is trying to run I get the following error:

./temacs is not an identifier
Please set the environment variable TERM; see tset(1)

I checked my environment and TERM is defined.  I looked in dispnew.c
to see how they were grabbing the environment and I pulled it out into
a simple test program

#include <stdio.h>

main()
{
   printf("'%s'\n", getenv("TERM"));
]

Which works.  But, dispnew thinks that getenv("TERM") is NULL.  Any
ideas?
