I forgot to say: I have xterm 225-1, i.e. the latest version.
In fact, you are probably seeing another bug (bug 301173). According
to the changelog file, this bug was fixed in 222-2:
* Ship "Xterm Control Sequences" document again, in both GNU Roff and plain
text formats, and register the latter with doc-base. (The former is
easily viewable in a terminal with "groff -Tutf8 ctlseqs.ms | more", so it
seems useful.) (Closes: #301173)
Since the original bug 232345 (inconsistency between the man page and
what was really shipped at that time) is also fixed (IMHO), I think
this bug should be closed.
