I really only needed this patch for the "tmux" terminfo file. Would it be
more palatable to just add t/tmux to the list of terminfo files to install?
I felt that would be a bit selfish (add a solution that works for me, but
not any other terminfo files), but it would be nice to get this in for
the next release.
Let me know if there's a chance to get this in the next release - if not,
I'll just keep carrying a local patch.

Does this need a $(call qstrip,...) around it? All kconfig strings do, right?
