How about just putting this before the call to tset:

	stty erase ^H kill ^U

Or whatever is the most common. This has worked ok on all machines
I have ever been on.  Maybe the best solution is to make <BS> the
default erase character.  I don't know about you but I have not used a
TTY for over 10 years :-).
