	I'm running Xenix 386 2.3.2 and I've run into something
	that I could use some help with.

	When using terminfo curses I can't get the "acsc=" string.
	...
	char *buf;

	buf = tigetstr("acsc");
	...

	In the above call, tigetstr() ALWAYS returns (char *)NULL.

	The same call on our Pyramid RETURNS the "acsc=" string.

	It seems as though in Xenix tigetstr() CAN'T or WON'T GET
	the "acsc=" string. tigetstr() will return other strings
	fine (i.e. sgr=).

	It's not the terminfo entry as that works fine on Non-Xenix 
	systems.

	Can anyone explain why this is happening?

	Enjoy

	Jeff
