PCXAL keyboard vs. delete

I used to use an alpha with an LK401 keyboard, on which I remapped (via
xmodmap) the <X| key to the keysym BackSpace. That worked great--xterm
sees it as ^H.

However, on my new machine with a PCXAL keyboard, when I map the
<--backspace key to BackSpace, xterm sees it as DEL (although 'xev'
displays it properly via XLookupString as "^H").

Have any of you successfully remapped the backspace key on a PCXAL to a
real backspace? What's the trick?

Same problem on V3.2d & T4.0-2.
