How about just adding this mapping in the global .bashrc and in
.[t]cshrc in your FreeBSD box. It's not that hard and will be totaly
transparent to your users since thier .*rc file should source the global

The same things used to happen between terminal on X11 on Linux. Eterm
was notoriouse for it a few years ago.
