True. Maybe we should simply document the issue somewhere.
However, the current workaround is problematic on -current, so it should be
removed. While at it, if the export hack works, we can simply put it in.
The next time a terminal issue arises, we scrap the whole idea of working
around terminal issues and start documenting the known problems.

This is far outside the sbopkg scope, though.
