Good question & idea. A quick look in mc:

/* Broken terminfo and termcap databases on xterminals */
static key_define_t xterm_key_defines[] = {
    {KEY_F (1), ESC_STR "OP", MCKEY_NOACTION},
    {KEY_F (2), ESC_STR "OQ", MCKEY_NOACTION},
    {KEY_F (3), ESC_STR "OR", MCKEY_NOACTION},
    {KEY_F (4), ESC_STR "OS", MCKEY_NOACTION},
    {KEY_F (1), ESC_STR "[11~", MCKEY_NOACTION},
    {KEY_F (2), ESC_STR "[12~", MCKEY_NOACTION},
    {KEY_F (3), ESC_STR "[13~", MCKEY_NOACTION},
    {KEY_F (4), ESC_STR "[14~", MCKEY_NOACTION},
    {KEY_F (5), ESC_STR "[15~", MCKEY_NOACTION},
    {KEY_F (6), ESC_STR "[17~", MCKEY_NOACTION},
    {KEY_F (7), ESC_STR "[18~", MCKEY_NOACTION},
    {KEY_F (8), ESC_STR "[19~", MCKEY_NOACTION},
    {KEY_F (9), ESC_STR "[20~", MCKEY_NOACTION},
    {KEY_F (10), ESC_STR "[21~", MCKEY_NOACTION},
.... a lot more ...

So looks like it needs to be copied...
