Actual results:
Backspace doesn't remove the character to the left of the cursor.

Comment 1 Tim Waugh 2003-08-14 14:30:04 UTC 
Seems to be fixed now.
Comment 2 Ben Levenson 2004-05-20 16:43:42 UTC 
reopening:
<Backspace> does not delete characters in vim with screen-4.0.2-2.
This worked in 3.9.15-11.
I'm not so great at parsing .screenrc, but this seems to resolve
the issue:
"bindkey -d -k kb stuff \010"
