Hi Eli, emacs developers,

Because the environment of this process has
TERM=screen-256c-bce-s and (getenv "TERM") is supposed to return
the value of this environment variable. It's the terminal where
emacs was started. It has much richer functionality than a dumb
terminal. And although the TERM variable is set to "dumb" emacs
uses the features of the terminal quite fine e.g. with respect to
colours.

That's way beyond my capabilities.
Ciao, Gregor
