Thanks to Peter Craine for pointing out how to make root have the same
keymappings and tty behavior as non-root accounts.
It turns out that (on my machine) although root and ordinary accounts
all have their environment set to bsd and shell set to csh, root gets
its key definitions from /sys/dm/std_keys.basic, while the others get
their key definitions from /sys/dm/std_keys.unix. That's why I was
perplexed about the differences. I still wonder why root only gets the
key defs from std_keys.basic, though.
