Cannot rename Ctrl-Backspace terminal sequence in Emacs?

[GoogleCodeExporter]

I'm not sure this is a defect or not but I can't figure out how to remap the 
Ctrl-Backspace terminal sequence for Emacs in Mintty.

I'm using Mintty 1.1.3 and Cygwin 1.7.35. Here is a link to my stackoverflow 
question for more information:

Mintty has apparently been switched to a mode not sending the default sequence 
for Ctrl-BS. The escape sequence you receive is likely ESC[127;5u (where 27 is 
missing from the description @ stackoverflow so it cannot work).

That fixed it! As far as being switched to a different mode, are you saying 
that the xterm "\b" escape is working correctly for you in Mintty?
