(System: AT 386, Interactive Unix 2.0.2)

I was told that this has been discussed before, but I couldn't find old
articles on that subject (it seems they've all been killed by expire on
every system where I can read news), so I'd like to ask this question.

I have compiled several programs (e.g. Pcomm, Gnuemacs, Conquer) that
don't work correctly with a console terminal (TERM=AT386). They produce
odd outputs as if the terminfo files were partially wrong. The same
programs work as expected on a terminal using TERM h19.

Is there ANY solution to this problem ? Any hints greatly
appreciated.

Frank.
