Summary: Backwards Delete does not work in PD-Extended
Initial Comment: This is also a Pd-Extended exclusive issue: the backwards delete key produces the "missing character" rectangles, overwriting but not deleting the intended text. In the picture: cursor was placed at the "d" in "delete", and backwards-delete was pressed 3 times. Instead of "ete", we get "[][][]ete".

Found it. The DEL key was deleting the character properly, but then later another mystery char was being added. I told the char adding code to ignore ASCII 127 (DEL) and its fixed.

I can reproduce this in my Mac/PowerPC on Pd-0.38.4-extended and Pd-0.39.2-extended-RC1. It worked properly on Pd-0.39.2 and Pd-0.40-2. So it's an old bug. I wonder what caused it...

In WINDOWS it is not specific to pd-extended.
I use PD-Vanilla in Window platform, from 0.39 to 0.40.2 and I've NEVER seen the delete key work properly (or work at all).

This is not exclusive to the new font as hinted [1], since it also happens in the test7 build (intel mac os x), hence not only in the RC1 build.
