System: NetBSD panix5.panix.com 7.0 NetBSD 7.0 (PANIX-XEN-USER) #1: Tue Jan 19 00:58:25 EST 2016 root%juggler.panix.com@localhost:/misc/obj/misc/devel/netbsd/7.0/src/sys/arch/i386/compile/PANIX-XEN-USER i386

>Description:

	With $TERM set to "vt100" or "vt102" the apropos program produces
	unreadable output that is littered with the string "$<2>" at every
	change in text attribute.

	It works fine with $TERM set to xterm or ansi.

>How-To-Repeat:
	export TERM=vt100; apropos lvm
>Fix:
	actually test changes

>Unformatted:
