I'd like to suggest the below patch. It aligns the handling of
Home and End key to its xterm counterparts. That doesn't solve the
problem with the rxvt-cygwin-native termcap/terminfo entries, but it
let rxvt work better in default xterm mode. Home and End now generate
the vt102/vt220/xterm sequence ESC [ H and ESC [ F. After switching
to the DEC extended cursor mode, they generate ESC O H and ESC O F,
same as vt102/vt220/xterm.
