Yes, the userland tool infocmp I provide doesn't compare entries yet, it
just prints them to the screen. It's purpose to date is to ensure that a
tic compiled entry matches a ncurses tic compiled entry.

However, the terminfo library and and compiler have all the
functionality required to be standards compliant.
