And yes, works now. The main difference is that xterm.el adds:
(define-key function-key-map "\e[A" [up])
(define-key function-key-map "\e[B" [down])
(define-key function-key-map "\e[C" [right])
(define-key function-key-map "\e[D" [left])

These and the others are the ANSI escape codes these keys generate. (If you need proof: type C-q and then hit the funktion or numerical keypad key -- you'll see such a sequence.) xterm.el simply assign these multiple bytes sequences a name or function that Emacs can handle these events when running inside a terminal emulation.
