/rescue/vi doesn't work without /usr (no terminal db)

I just booted into single user on a 5.4-p6 system. I needed to edit
something on the root fs, but /rescue/vi wouldn't work, it complained
about not finding the terminal database.

I saw some mention in the archives from June about fixing this, though I
don't think anything has been comitted yet.

In the meantime, how can I run /rescue/vi without /usr?

thanks,
Thomas
