It seems that Emacs sees the <end> key as <select> in vt220 terminals.
Run "xterm -ti vt220 -kt vt220", in that xterm "emacs -Q -nw" and press
C-h k <end>.  You get the message: "<select> is undefined".

Subject: Bug#173983: emacs21: The End key doesn't work in xterm-vt220.
Date: Sun, 22 Dec 2002 20:28:32 +0100
Message-ID: <E18QBm4-0001oy-00@ay>

Package: emacs21
Version: 21.2-1
Severity: normal

When emacs is run in an xterm with the VT220 keyboard and the
xterm-vt220 terminfo, the End key is incorrectly regarded as
<select> instead of <end>, according to describe-key. I tried
with emacs -q -nw.

For the End key, infocomp says:

  kend=\E[4~

and there's nothing about kslt.

The other applications, like Mutt, Tin and Less, recognize the
End key correctly.

This is correct.  The vt220 does not have an <end> key.

Did you miss one step: set TERM to xterm-vt220 ? 
After doing that emacs -Q -nw works just fine for me (with emacs from
CVS HEAD)

Indeed, I missed that.
