How does one get consistant behavior of the backspace key in emacs and
gnometerm? I've fed xmodmap

remove Lock = Caps_Lock
remove Control = Control_L
keysym Control_L = Caps_Lock
keysym Caps_Lock = Control_L
add Lock = Caps_Lock
add Control = Control_L
keysym BackSpace = Delete

and then

echo "XTerm*ttyModes: erase " | xrdb -merge

which has worked for me in other unices and is documented in the
xmodmap man page for freebsd, but no joy. It doesn't work for xterm
either :-(

Running 4.7-RELEASE for i386.

Thanks in advance,
Scott
