I tried to recompile bash today, and found that speed_t is no longer defined.
This is a bit of a problem, since /usr/include/termcap expects to get it
from types.h, and so the compilation falls down with a syntax error.

Now, some people tell me that termcap is being slowly replaced with terminfo.
Is there an FAQ on this?  I managed the ELF upgrade in place without any
hassles, and now run a nice hybrid system.  I hope that I can do the same
with termcap/terminfo.  This might also enable me to play sail, which
always barfs at my terminal :-(

What do all you people suggest?
