Look, I don't use Emacs in X, and I NEVER use
the PageUp/PageDown keys - actually I didn't
know they existed until now! Ahem...

Nonetheless, with xterm as the terminal
emulator, zsh as the command interpreter or
shell, with tmux there as well, and Emacs 24
invoked with -Q, those buttons behaved
like expected!

I mean, like I think them to expect to
behave... eh, nevermind.
