Subject: telnet does not build on Fedora Core 4
src/appl/telnet/telnet/telnet.c will not build on Fedora Core 4.
FC4's /usr/include/term.h declares setupterm() but autoconf does not
detect it and therefore HAVE_SETUPTERM is not defined in the Makefile.

In addition, the variable 'ttytype' is not available unless we use
NCURSES instead of CURSES. This is also not detected by autoconf.

Just hit this problem, what is the temporary workaround?
