+Subject: [PATCH] bindings: when Ctrl+Shift+Delete has no keycode, don't use
+ KEY_BSP
+
+When curses gives no code for Ctrl+Shift+Delete, do not fall back
+to KEY_BACKSPACE, because then ^H and/or <Backspace> get bound to
+'cutwordleft'.
+
+This fixes https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?54642.
+
+Bug was introduced with version 3.0, commit e6429e78.
