One workaround is to put (not sure about uppercase/lowercase; do a
google):
Xterm*termName: xterm-color
in your .Xdefaults.

However, according to the xterm maintainer Thomas E. Dickey, this is
wrong; basically he's saying that FreeBSD uses a broken termcap,
which should be exchanged with the xterm-termcap (anyone know
something about this? Comments? Explanation?).
