xterm-238
>Description:
After update to xterm-238, cursor keys, PgUp, PgDn and suchlike
did not work as expected: denending on the key in question, there
was no response at all or skipping whole words on cursor left/right.
See Debian bug 511138 http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=511138
for another instance of this.
>How-To-Repeat:
According to the xterm changelog, this is a problen on 64bit
machines only.
>Fix:
Thomas Dickey has since released xterm-239 which fixed the problem
for me (and on Debian).
The patch below updates the port x11/xterm to version 239
