Sure, the problem is that you need the definition of SGTTY which is found
in /usr/include/curses.h!  All you need to do to make the clear.c program
(the one with the offending message) do a #include <curses.h> before you
do a #include <term.h>  Once you add the new line, everything will compile
fine.
