The xterm manual page says:

       tiXtraScroll (class TiXtraScroll)
               Specifies  whether  xterm  should  scroll to a new
               page when processing the ti termcap  entry,  i.e.,
               the  privde  modes 47, 1047 or 1049.  This is only
               in effect if titeInhibit is ``false'', because the
               intent  of  this option is to provide a picture of
               the  full-screen  application's  display  on   the
               scrollback  without wiping out the text that would
               be shown before the application  was  initialized.
               The default for this resource is ``false.''

but the code says

            if (!termw->misc.titeInhibit) {
                if (func == bitset) {
                    CursorSave(termw);
                    ToAlternate(screen);
                    ClearScreen(screen);
                } else {
                    FromAlternate(screen);
                    CursorRestore(termw);
                }
            } else if (termw->misc.tiXtraScroll) {
                if (func == bitset) {
                    xtermScroll(screen, screen->max_row);
                }
            }

i.e. tiXtraScroll is only in effect if titeInhibit is *true* (not false
as the manual says).
