`src/dircolors.hin` lists TERM entries, which can be glob patterns,
to match against the TERM environment variable to determine if it
is colorizable.
It also lists `TERM putty`, rather than the expected `TERM putty*`.
Right now, `TERM putty-256color` (from ncurses-term) gets ignored,
although it is capable of displaying colors and widely used by
Putty users.
I suggest to fix the glob pattern in `src/dircolors.hin`, also
in upstream.
Note upstream no longer has putty-256color,
but since 8.25 supports globbing of entries,
and so now uses *color*.
This can be further overridden, like on Fedora at least
where /etc/DIR_COLORS.256color matches *256color*
