I don't have naim or bitchX here, but I suspect that they use terminfo,
rather than the legacy termcap system.  If I'm right about those two
applications then you can't the results with what you see from Asterisk.

I always switch colour support off anyway, using the "-n" switch, if
I need to start Asterisk manually to test something.  I generally
connect to a running Asterisk in remote mode, and don't get colours in
that mode.  If it's a bug then it's not one that bothers me in the
slightest. :-)
