I'm running 1.3.5-3, and xemacs 21.4.3 (although the same problem
occurs with 21.1.13).

gnuclient works fine.

gnuclient -nw does not (under bash) -- the window converts as
expected, but no keystrokes get through (sometimes ^G will close the
window, but normal service is not provided).

export TERM=ansi

fixes the problem, but why is it happening at all?
