I don't know, but I guess no program other than DOS Emacs uses 
TERM=internal, so if a shell script expects TERM it will be most confused 
when its value is "internal".  I think we should try without TERM at 
all.  If you have example(s) of shell scripts that expects TERM, could 
you see how do they cope with its absence?
