  I am.  Remote boxes are Ultra 1's, AXi's, and AXMP's, running
Solaris 2.6 or 7.  Worked fine until a recent apt-get run.  If I
telnet in via an xterm, well, it's hosed.  Eg in vi, the ':q' to
quit displays on the top line, trying to move the cursor may
appear to do nothing, may jump around by several rows and/or
columns at a time, may disappear completely, who knows.  $TERM,
$LINES, and $COLUMNS are all correct.  Remote access via a terminal
window (dtterm) still works ok, so getting by for now.
