that's because the X modifiers don't predefine numlock, so unless the
emulator makes a special check for it, it's not properly supported.
I added checks in XFree86 xterm last year, and that works reasonably
well (breaks of course if one tinkers with xmodmap or the key translations).

The XFree86 xterm supports ANSI color and VT220 emulation
