It doesn't have anything to do with the NetBSD version, it seems. Both 
with 2.0_RC4 as with 2.0_STABLE one key maps to ^H and the other to ^?. 
But, and this I find the strange part, this is only with my USB keyboard. 
When I connect a PS2 keyboard, both backspace and delete give ^?. My guess 
is the difference in behaviour is because the PS2 one is attached as 
console keyoard. My laptop also doesn't make the difference between 
backspace and delete. It doesn't really matter for me, because I'm used to 
^D, but I'll try compiling a kernel tomorrow where my ukbd attaches as 
console keyboard.

kind regards,
dieter
