Function keys work when using ssh via xterm

When using ssh from the built-in MacOS X terminal, I cannot use the F-keys nor keys like PgUp or PgDown on a Linux server environment. I don't know if this might occur on different operating systems, too, but I have only tried Linux so far. In contrast to that, if using ssh from xterm from Apple's X11, I do not have any problems with special keys at all. This seems to be the first properly working ssh/telnet solution for MacOS X.
