The definition of the keytable is in /usr/share/lib/keytables
There should be a file us_5 in that directory. 

In the default Sun us_5 many keys in particular the new keys were
mapped to the old keys, probably for compatibility with version 4 keyboard. 

I copied that file to ~/.keytable which is used if it exists.

Editing this file enabled me to define the 4 new cursor keys on the 
keypad independent of the cursor keys on the numeric keypad.
With this you can define an almost complete vt100 keypad  using
 .Xdefaults and have this same setup to use on Sun/UNIX 
and when rlogin VAX/VMS. 

I have used it for few weeks with no problems.
