I have narrowed it down some more. It seems to have little to do with 
FreeBSD or the net load or cmucl

I can recreate it on Linux with

  # run screen, and detach
  % screen -m -d
  # re-attach to screen
  % screen -r
  # run cmucl
  % cmucl18c
  ;; now BACKSPACE wipes the whole line, and DELETE deletes one char
  ;;  and yes, 'cat' behaves the same way as cmucl, but
  ;; 'tcsh' behaves as expected

So this looks like a quirk in screen, not cmucl, and only when one 
reattaches to a detached terminal started with 'screen -m -d'

I thought it was a cmucl bug because I ran only cmucl like this.

Weird, but not a problem for the cmucl maintainers, apparently.
