They are stealed only if you manually add either a setuid bit or a capability on fbterm's binary. If the setuid bit or capability is set by default in other distributions, removing it should be enough. (And if you're annoyed by the warning that fbterm prints because it cannot steal those key sequences, you can add a "clear" in you shell startup script.)
