Summary: 

CCA emacs treats the eighth bit as a meta bit iff the "km" flag is set
in the termcap/terminfo entry.  Otherwise it just strips the bit
assuming it was a parity bit.  I use the following for my PC with
kermit:

Termcap:
km|kermit|mskermit|MSDOS Kermit H19 emulator with meta key:\
	:km:tc=h19:

Terminfo:
mskermit|kermit|MSDOS Kermit H19 emulator with meta key,
	km, use=h19,
