common-win.el has a definition of `x-setup-function-keys' that does
the appropriate magic with `system-key-alist' to fix this issue. That
code is conditional on (featurep 'ns), and `x-setup-function-keys' is
called when creating a GUI frame on macOS, but not when creating a tty
frame.

So the solution is to somehow perform the magic just when (featurep
'ns), regardless of frame type. One way of doing that is by just
putting it at the toplevel in common-win.el (although putting it at
the toplevel in ns-win.el works as well).
