If you are using emacs emulation, then you already have Ctrl-X ESC
bound to something ("evaluate_cmd").  This means that you wil not be
able to bind Ctrl-X ESC[5~ to anything without first unbinding Ctrl-X
ESC:

   local_unsetkey ("^X\e");
   local_setkey ( "top_of_buffer", "^X\e[5~" );

The same is true for the ESC[5~ Ctrl-X combination, since by default
ESC[5~ is bound to the PageUp key.

I hope this explains what is going on.  --John
