3. When I invoke XEmacs V21 from home in the tty, it sees C-h mapped

V20.4 from the same tty, however, C-h is interpreted properly as the help
prefix. I could not find any relevant changes in the News. What gives?
In 21.0, the mapping of \010 and \177 to keysyms on a tty depends upon
the setting of the tty driver's `erase' character. Whichever code
corresponds to the erase character is mapped to the `backspace'
keysym.
If you want C-h to be treated as C-h, use `stty erase ...' to define
some other code as the erase character.
