Wouldn't that be for running apps on a Linux system from a remote SCO
ANSI compatible terminal or workstation? (In other words,
terminfo/termcap tells your local *nix system what the remote's terminal
capabilities are -- it does not set the emulation on your local xterm.)

Or for use in a telnet or ssh session on a remote SCO machine. Have you
even tried using whatever terminal emulator in a remote session to the
SCO box and setting your TERM env to scoansi.

I don't have any SCO stuff anywhere so I can't possibly test that but you
can.
