I don't think the upstream would want to prefer ncurses to termcap (which is a potential behavior change) only because Fedora wants to remove one of them. tcsh is still used on a lot of quite old platforms, often by "old-school" system administrators; I wouldn't at all be surprised if some of them have hand-edited /etc/termcap with only the 5 necessary entries.
