Set the XTerm*ttyModes resource. From the xterm man page: 
 ttyModes (class TtyModes)
 Specifies a string containing terminal setting
 keywords and the characters to which they may be
 bound. Allowable keywords include: intr, quit,
 erase, kill, eof, eol, swtch, start, stop, brk,
 susp, dsusp, rprnt, flush, weras, and lnext. Con-
 trol characters may be specified as ^char (e.g. ^c
 or ^u) and ^? may be used to indicate Delete.
 This is very useful for overriding the default
 terminal settings without having to do an stty
 every time an xterm is started.

In NetBSD, alloca(3) is in <stdlib.h>. Just comment out the reference to
<alloca.h>, possibly replacing it with <stdlib.h>.
