backspace not working with mg

[Mayuresh Kathe]

my backspace key functions just right with 'ee' but not under "mg".
the system just beeps and the cursor just sits where it was.
i am a "vi" guy, but now am migrating to "mg" because the nature
of work for me going forward would involve a "lisp-1" system and
"mg" provides nice parentheses matching feature without the bloat
i would have to tolerate if using "gnu emacs".
