mintty ^H/^? bug


I think there's a minor bug in the way mintty handles the ^H/^? option for the Backspace key. Suppose you have mintty set up so that Backspace sends ^H (the default). You then use the options menu to change this so that Backspace sends ^?. Then stty -a still shows erase = ^H, and some applications don't work as expected. (But BackspaceSendsDEL=1 has been written to .minttyrc, and everything is OK in *future* instances of mintty.)
