As always, /bin should be first in the PATH, but that isn't going to solve your
problem.

Try `export TERM=cygwin'.  Yea, I know Chris said that it shouldn't matter.

Hmm... I just did `export TERM=ansi' and I can still do the backspace.  What
happens if you do Ctrl-H instead of the Backspace key?  Is it possible that
your Backspace key is mapped to be the Delete key?  BTW, my CYGWIN variable
isn't set at all.
