Athena 8.0 bug report

Hi,

I upgraded be-our-guest (SPARC Classic) this morning.  One thing that I
noticed immediately was that the backspace doesn't appear to work in an
xterm.  Actually it does work but there is no sign of it deleting
characters.  For example if I type:

	moire 

and try to correct it to 'more' the terminal will reflect

	moirere

Though when I hit return, it will be understood as

	more

Everything seems normal in emacs though.  Let me know if this doesn't
make sense.

Mark
