Really? I've just tried (local-set-key "\M-\C-h" 'foo) in my message
buffer, and pressing M-backspace says "Symbol's function definition is
void: foo".
Right. VHDL doesn't seem to bind the key if it's running under XEmacs
(`vhdl-xemacs'...), I can't explain why I thought i worked under Gnus.

As I said, both should be changed to [(control meta h)]. This feature
(*not* a problem or a bug!) is already documented. Just take a look
at the docs of `define-key':
Oops. That's good.
