        Someone using Java WorkShop discovered that on win32, Ctrl+BackSpace
        generates the same event as Ctrl+Del. (See bug 4085670)

        Ctrl+Del:
        java.awt.Event[id=401,x=0,y=0,key=127,control,target=sun.jws.pce.Editor[panel20,0,0,384x523,layout=java.awt.FlowLayout]]

        Ctrl+BackSpace
        java.awt.Event[id=401,x=0,y=0,key=127,control,target=sun.jws.pce.Editor[panel20,0,0,384x523,layout=java.awt.FlowLayout]]


        On Sparc, the two events are different:

        Ctrl+Del:
        java.awt.Event[id=401,x=0,y=0,key=127,control,target=sun.jws.pce.Editor[panel20,0,0,384x523,layout=java.awt.FlowLayout]]

        Ctrl+BackSpace
        java.awt.Event[id=401,x=0,y=0,key=8,control,target=sun.jws.pce.Editor[panel20,0,0,384x523,layout=java.awt.FlowLayout]]

        It would be nice if the behavior was the same on these two platforms,
        preferably following the Solaris behavior.
