I don't have that particular environment. But I have verified that on
Ubuntu 18.04 (x86_64), libtextstyle from gettext-0.20.2 passes its tests.
And that the output of 'infocmp -l -1 xterm' on my system is the same as
on yours.

Could you please give additional info:

  1) Can you get a gdb stack trace?
     $ cd tests
     $ TERM=xterm gdb ./test-term-ostream
     or $ TERM=xterm ../libtool --mode=execute gdb ./test-term-ostream
     (gdb) run > out1
     (gdb) where

  2) If that stack trace is not useful, then please rebuild the libtextstyle
     directory (of gettext 0.20.2 if possible - that's the newest release)
     with CFLAGS=-ggdb, and retry with gdb?

Thanks.
