presumably both local and remote systems have comparable package versions.

there are at least three places where the problem might be:

	ncurses
	zsh
	terminal emulator

A "typescript" from the "script" program would show what's written to the
terminal, while the environment variables (and output of infocmp) for
the local and remote systems would help with the discussion.
