>Description:

The breakage has already been noted by Steve Roome <steve@sse0691.bri.hp.com>,
see the log of PR ports/21264 (tn3270).

See the easy fix below.

>How-To-Repeat:

Try rtelnet <some-host>, and watch it dump core.

>Fix:

Easy: just remove patch-al from the port.  It is no longer needed, and
causes the described breakage as a side-effect. (The patch tries
to supercede FreeBSD's setupterm by the local definition in rtelnet;
the local definition causes the coredump.)
