IMHO, it be much simpler to cycle buffers if the next-buffer /
prev-buffer commands were on C-x C-right / C-x C-left instead of the
current bindings, C-x right / C-x left ?

In X11, maybe (though I don't find C-x right particularly
inconvenient). On a tty, C-left/right might not exist. Question is
whether this is important enough to take two bindings, given they
both exist.

That sounds like a good idea. However, I find on my terminal (a Linux
console) that typing LEFT while holding down CTL actually sends M-left.
This translation does not seem to be done by Emacs.
So how about making both bindings?

Maybe it's a bug in the corresponding term/*.el file.
What does $TERM say and what does C-h l say after hitting C-left?

TERM is "linux", and C-h l shows ESC b. Not only that,
I did (list (read-event) (read-event)) and determined
that the console actually sends ESC b.
;-).
