As far as i'm aware, ESC has always been meta, especially in text mode environments. Or at least
that has been my experience to date. Can i ask what environment this is?
Just a quick check in xemacs shows a variable called meta-prefix-char, which may be applicable.
Not sure if you know this, but one good resource for such things is the emacswiki.
this section may apply to your situation.

not this one though ;)
