This is the fix for the problem phil saw with the 2.10.2 vnews. TS in
termcap causes termcap to enable to status line (when it exists) and jump
to it. TI initializes the terminal. Someone seems to have gotten the
documentation wrong in ancient history because this has shown up in vnews
since day one. if you have funny things happening with vnews, try this one
out.

Dreams, dreams, enchanter! Gone with the harp's echo when the strings fall
mute; with the flame's shadow when the fire dies. Be still, and listen.
