here is a command you can use in emacs' src/ subdir:

sed -e '/T[SN]_.*= tget/!d' \
    -e 's/= tget......//' \
    -e 's/\".*//' \
    -e 's/.*\(T[SN]_.*\) \([^ ][^ ]*\)$/\2 \1/' \
    term.c

it shows which terminal capabilities are used by emacs
on console to effect bold, underline, etc.  you can copy
the vt100 entry from /etc/termcap (or wherever) and remove
those capabilities you wish to disable.  for example, to
zonk bold, change ":md=BLAH:" to ":".  save the entry to
~/.termcap and set the TERMCAP env var to that file.  you
have to exit/restart emacs at this point, (un)fortunately,
to use the new settings.

i've appended the output for those (poor souls) w/o access
to source code, or are otherwise uninclined to experiment,
or are otherwise bound by idiotic legal systems that mar
their free thought potential.
