for i in /usr/bin/*; strings -a $i|grep "No value for" && echo $i

said that this comes from /usr/bin/tput, called from my ".zshenv".
I've just reported a wishlist bug on ncurses-bin to ask for better
error messages (with the program name).

Concerning ssh, why isn't TERM passed to the remote side? IMHO, this
would make sense and would be very useful. This is just the opposite
of rlogin, which passes TERM, but not DISPLAY!
