TAB is (the number) C-i, which can't have Control re-applied in the usual
sense, so it gets the 0x4000000 bit set (that's 0x4000009).

`function-key-map' and friends don't have a translation for this symbol,
perhaps because it's not something you can type on a terminal. So you
can't bind it as a character, only as a symbol.
