Hm... but wouldn't that possibly cause problems? That is, if your TERM
is
linux2.6.26
then if we split on dots, then Emacs will first look for
"text/linux2.6.26.el", and then "term/linux2.6.el"... and those are
indeed different terminfos as found on my system:
linux2.6
linux2.6.26

Now, there is no term/linux2.6.el, so perhaps this is irrelevant... And
perhaps if there was a term/linux2.6.el, perhaps loading that would be
OK in this case? Anybody got an opinion here?
