Another way to do it is fiddle with your overrides. Add this to your X
resources:
XTerm*VT100.Translations: #override ~Shift ~Ctrl ~Meta <Key>Home: string("\033OH")\n\
~Shift ~Ctrl ~Meta <Key>End: string("\033OF")
If I remember correctly, didn't this used to be in xterm's app-defaults
file way back when? I know there was a big hoo-rah at one point about it
earlier this year.
