 I forgot to mention that I'm not using the R6 termcap xterm entries
 supplied by XFree because they don't work properly, whereas the normal
 ones do for everything else.
 
 It's worth noting I suppose that I didn't need to change anything for rxvt
 and termcap.
 
 Maybe if I use the termcap stuff supplied by Xfree then I'll not have this
 particular problem but I can have all the others it gives you.
