} I use the default options and I assume that something is wrong on the
} NetBSD side.

     Why would you automatically assume that?  That's a pessimatic
viewpoint towards NetBSD.

} My only host change in my env(1)/NetBSD-host that might affect something is:
} 
} LC_ALL=pl_PL.UTF-8

     Given what Thomas Dickey said about the 8-bit controls earlier
it sounds like you're failing to tell the OpenVMS side what type
of terminal you have (i.e. it thinks that you have a VT220 or newer
model when you only have a VT100).  If this is the case, then it
is user error on your part and not NetBSD's fault at all.
