Thanks for this tip.

While this patch fixes some other problems I've noticed, it doesn't fix
my xemacs one.  (There are no xemacs resources in /etc/X11/Xresources to
be loaded.)

Further to my previous report, I find that "xemacs -vanilla" *does* give
me separate BS and DEL keys.  I'll have a hunt around in the config
files which the "-vanilla" option supresses and see if I can find
what's causing it.
