Mine look like this:

    (define-key input-decode-map [?\u0110] [C-0])

and yes, it should say it is translated:

    <C-0> (translated from ...) is undefined

I once wrote a tutorial how to do this in the ttys:

    http://user.it.uu.se/~embe8573/tty-emacs-keys.txt

but with xterm I don't know.

Either it is a notational issue - try something else
(something simpler), just to see if the translation
stuff works - either that, or it is something else.
