   "... emulation), but apparently gnuemacs loads term/vt220.el _after_ my
   .emacs, overwriting my efforts. Is there anyway to defeat this? or ..."

I have in my .emacs

   ; use my special vt220 startup and suppress others
   (if (string= (getenv "TERM") "vt220") (load "vt220sp"))

The "vt220sp" file contains the line

   ; Prevent loading of usual vt220 startup
   (setq term-file-prefix nil)

I think this does what you want.
