Doing F1-k on backspace ("delete" key) gives:

  DEL (translated from <backspace>) runs the command
  delete-backward-char

And with delete (Fn-"delete") it says:

  DEL (translated from <kp-delete>) runs the command
  delete-backward-char

So both are mapped to DEL.

You can fix this with

  (global-set-key [kp-delete] 'delete-char)

Tested on

 GNU Emacs 24.0.50.1 (x86_64-apple-darwin, NS apple-appkit-1038.32)
 of 2010-06-21 on black.porkrind.org

Personally, I'm used to C-d, M-d, etc. for forward deleting.

Saludos,
.j.
