This is now fixed in SVN for the next version.

The problem was in the recent port of the editor classes to Scheme,
where "delete" in a keymap was mapped to a 'delete key event (which
never happens) instead of a #\rubout key event.


That is, line 42 of

 <plt>/collects/mred/private/wxme/keymap.ss

should have been

        ("delete" . #\rubout)


Thanks for the report,
