MicroEmacs 3.10 / Sun problem

I am having some trouble getting MicroEmacs 3.10 to work correctly on
the Sun workstation.  It compiles fine, but it does not recognize
any of the 'R' or 'F' function keys.  If I use ^X? (describe key) all
I ever get is 'M-[ not bound' for any of those keys, which obviously 
makes it difficult to assign any functions to those keys if they all
map to the same value.  

In estruct.h I have set SUNOS, UNIX compiler, and TERMCAP to 1.  I have also
tried with BSD instead of SUNOS (which was the value I used in V3.8e), 
I also tried with VT100 set to 1.  Same result in all cases.

Something else that may or may not be related, I set REVSTA to 1 but the 
status line does not appear in reverse video.  This same copy
of Emacs compiles and works just fine on my PC so I don't think there is
a problem with the distribution unless there is a Sun specific file that
I am missing.

Any help would be appreciated,
