How about just adding this mapping in the global .bashrc and in
=2E[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
one first.

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