Where is the bug here? You configure DEL to be BACKSPACE and complain 
that it generates BACKSPACE. Change your setting to default and it will 
work as you expect it to work. This option is probably for compatibility 
with some terminals, where DEL works as backspace. If you don't want it 
to act that way, don't configure it so.
