Either's VT100 emulation should be acceptable, though

Latest update, taking bits and pieces from folks comments...

I started Terminal and set the terminal variable to VT100 then started a new bash:
TERM=vt100 exec bash

started the rt-11 simulation
pdp11 boot.ini

then tried ked somefile

I was able to use fn-F1 as the Gold Key, but I couldn't figure out how to get Command. I then hooked up a regular mac keyboard to the laptop (it has a numeric keypad) and was able to get both fn-F1 and numeric keypad 7 to work as GOLD-COMMAND. This was encouraging. I went back to the laptop keyboard and was able to use fn-F1 as GOLD and then ESC-O-w as command, remembering y'alls advice. This was workable, but not ideal. So, I took a look at the keyboard tab in Terminal preferences and was able to assign ESC-o-w to a key and voila, rational keyboard :).

Thanks for all of the tips and pointers. I am pretty pleased with the way things are working now and have a much greater level of understanding of how to figure these sorts of issues out going forward. I am glad that it works with a regular terminal because copy and paste and such in the host is much simpler than with xterm or another emulator.

Regards,

Will
