There is a subtle but important distinction between M-DEL (bound to backward-kill-word and not overriden in octave-mode AFAICT) and M-C-h (bound to mark-defun by default, and overriden to octave-mark-defun in octave-mode). If backspace is generating C-h rather than DEL, then that's a misconfiguration on the user's part that will generally play badly with Emacs. -- Aaron M.
