Part of the file .../emacs/lisp/term/sun.el is given here:

(defvar sun-esc-bracket nil
  "*If non-nil, rebind ESC [ as prefix for Sun function keys.")

(defvar sun-raw-map (make-sparse-keymap) "*Keymap for ESC-[ encoded keyboard")

[ ... various define-key's for sun-raw-map omitted ... ]

(if sun-esc-bracket
    (progn
      (define-key esc-map "[" sun-raw-map)		; Install sun-raw-map

      [ ... more define-key's for esc-map omitted ... ]

      ))

Now it seems to me that the code inside the if can never get executed,
since sun-esc-bracket is always set to nil when this point is reached.
Is there something I'm missing here?
