They don't (at least through xterm binary) - maybe that's why they
forgot (!?) to change it too. But out xterm sets TERM=xterm-color, so
when I login to Debian/RH all the backspace keybindings not work (read
below).

$ TERM=xterm infocmp | grep kbs
        kb2=\EOE, kbs=\177, kcbt=\E[Z, kcub1=\EOD, kcud1=\EOB, 
$ TERM=xterm-color infocmp | grep kbs
        is2=\E7\E[r\E[m\E[?7h\E[?1;3;4;6l\E[4l\E8\E>, kbs=^H, 

The latter one is problem at Debian and RH, because currently it's
different that ours. The former one was not problem without yout
changes, because our xterm doesn't set TERM=xterm.

With TERM=xterm it's ok (better than before). With xterm-color (our
default) there's difference in generated sequence and terminfo, thus key
bindings (NOT backspace as erase!) in ncurses don't work. E.g.

mutt in pager mode:
<BackSpace>     previous-line               scroll up one line

Either we readapt xterm-color to Debian and RH (kbs=^H) or we convince
them to change it too - I have no idea if it is intentional difference
between xterm and xterm-color or their both mistake.

One more thing - what stty erase sets xterm after your changes? You
should have added "*ttyModes: erase ^?".
