error in rxvt terminal description

Hi,

I've downloaded ncurses 5.3 and noticed a small problem with the rxvt
description in the terminfo.src file. It uses:

        rs1=\E>\E[1;3;4;5;6l\E[?7h\E[m\E[r\E[2J\E[H, 

but this doesn't make the cursor visible when it was invisible. For
instance, type the following in an rxvt:

$ tput civis
$ reset

The cursor is still invisible, which is a bit annoying. I think that
cnorm should be added, i.e.

        rs1=\E>\E[1;3;4;5;6l\E[?7h\E[m\E[r\E[2J\E[H\E[?25h, 

This solves the problem, though I'm not sure that this is the correct
way.

PS: the terminfo.src file says

# Please e-mail changes to address@hidden; the old address@hidden
# address is no longer valid.  The latest version can always be found at
# <http://www.tuxedo.org/terminfo>.

but http://www.tuxedo.org/terminfo seems to be no longer valid (I get
redirected to somewhere else).

Regards,
