Here's Dave Alverson's recommended patch for the destructive backspace
problem. You can do this with any reasonable raw-file editor (edit the
resource fork) or with ResEdit (CODE 4 resource, offset 0022f2, find
588f 4eba 0004 4e75 and change it to 588f 4e71 4e71 4e75).
With this change in place, ZTerm 0.8 works very effectively under GNU
Emacs.

Subject: Re: ZTerm 0.8 has destructive backspace
To fix the wonderful destructive backspace in ZTerm v0.8, go to offset
10BEE in the file and change 4EBA 0004 to 4E71 4E71. The word before
these two is 588F and the word after is 4E75. This just NOPs out a call
to a subroutine that erases the char at the cursor position.
