[erlang-bugs] A small bug in Erlang mode for Emacs

[Sergei Golovan]

Hi!

Looks like Erlang mode for Emacs has a bug: When it's used with
XEmacs, it binds 'backward-delete-char-untabify to Delete key. The bug
is found in Debian Linux, so it's possible that it's Debian-specific.
But if not then the following patch fixes it.
