And a couple more questions:
. What version of Emacs did you have before this one, that didn't
have this problem (whatever "the problem" is)?
. If you are using Emacs on Apple Terminal, why do you set TERM to
"xterm" or "xterm-color"? Are there any reasons to believe that
the Apple Terminal is a faithful enough emulation of xterm? (You
say that on a real xterm, everything works fine.)
Finally, could you please try a newer version of Emacs? v23.1 is
quite old; v23.3 was released a few days ago, and in v23.2 there were
several important changes in xterm.el, which may or may not solve your
problem.
