It may be an xterm(1) thing. Xterm sends ESC [ Z to the terminal when
you press shift-tab. You may be able to map this escape sequence to a
tab in the readline configuration (which I dont know how to do), or put
a translation in the X resources for xterm, which is what I did:

XTerm.VT100*Translations:       #override \n\
        Shift   <Key>Tab:       string(0x09)

This goes in your .Xresources (or .Xdefaults) file.
