What <BS> and <Del> exactly are, depends on the t_kb and t_kD termcap
settings respectively. In gvim, special keystrokes are got in a
different way and these termcap entries are not provided. In Console
Vim, we usually expect <BS> to produce <C-H> and <Del> to produce
<C-?> but it is not always so; for instance in my konsole, <BS>
produces Ctrl-? and <Del> produces Esc [ 3 ~ (escape openSquareBracket
three tilde). This causes no problem because t_kb and t_kD are
correctly set for these settings.
See under ":help :fixdel" how to adjust your backspace and delete
termcap entries so that your keystrokes produce the desired result.

Best regards,
Tony.
