emacs "forward-word" fails after Feisty

I updated to Feisty Fawn from Edgy through the "Update Manager".
There was no problem in the update. However, emacs-23.0.0 (compiled
from source) gives me a problem. When I press Control-rightarrow I
get ';5C' instead of the forward-word I expect. I get ';5D' when I
press Control-leftarrow.

This only happens when I run 'emacs -nw' in a gnome-terminal. It
works as expected in the gui mode. I have recompiled emacs,
reinstalled ubuntu base-files, checked emacs key-bindings
(M-rightarrow works though); I have also checked ~/.inputrc and
/etc/inputrc. Everything seems fine.

Could it be a problem in gnome-terminal 2.18? I have anther machine
running gnome-terminal v. 2.14. The arrows work fine when I ssh in
with gnome-terminal v.2.14. Any suggestions on how I should proceed?
Thanks,

Yuelin.
