Ah, excellent.  Yes, stty -a shows the same thing for rxvt.  What a load
of crock.  Is it a problem with our xterm termcap or rxvt?

cchars: discard = ^O; dsusp = ^Y; eof = ^D; eol = <undef>;
        eol2 = <undef>; erase = ^?; erase2 = (; intr = ^C; kill = ^U;
        lnext = ^V; min = 1; quit = ^\; reprint = ^R; start = ^Q;
        status = ^E; stop = ^S; susp = ^Z; time = 0; werase = ^W;
