I just found out that the problem does *NOT* appear with konsole.
Checking a bit deeper, it uses TERM=linux - setting TERM=xterm here
breaks a few things again. The other way round (setting TERM=linux in a
xterm session) is not helpful at all. Side-effect of TERM=linux is that
you lose mouse support (at least as far as Midnight Commander is
affected). So you have the choice of "mouse XOR keyboard working fine".

@Thomas Dickey: If you could send me the affected termcap files (and say
where they belong to), I would try to replace mine (after a backup). If
that solves the issue, we at least know how to work around the bug until
it's solved (which I guess will not happen that soon - to be honest, I
would even be surprised if it was solved in Gutsy).
