A friend with a vanilla RH7.1 box reports that running
emacs -q -no-site-file
in a text console crashes with "Fatal error (6)" when font lock is
turned on and TERM is (correctly) set to "linux".
Also TERM=ansi causes it to crash, although xterm (!) and vt100 work,
the latter without colour.
This is part of the backtrace:
#0 0x402cbdd1 in __kill () from /lib/libc.so.6
#1 0x80cf6bc in fatal_error_signal (sig=6) at emacs.c:354

It looks to me like emacs has run into an unexpected character in the
termcap entry "\e[3%p1%dm" and aborted in the default branch of the
switch in tparam1(). However I don't know if the error is in the entry
itself or emacs' expections of it.
