[MC-35805] OS X: Pressing Del / Backspace on signs shows "DEL" character instead of deleting characters

How to reproduce:
1. Write text into the sign
2. Press backspace

Expected:
The last character should be removed.

What happens instead:
The last character is replaced with an unknown symbol.

Environment

OS: Mac OS X
OS version: 10.9
Java version: 1.6.0_51

unable to reproduce on windows 8 PC - Check your Keyboard controls in the options and see if something might be using it by mistake.

Please reopen this issue. It wasn't fixed by 13w42b and seems to be a OS X-specific problem.

Yep, still happening to me in 13w42b. I'm using Mac OS X

Same.

Same with me, It hasn't been fixed in 13w42b. 😞
I tried Looking in the Options.txt, but no luck.

Aww such racism against dels 😞 fixed 😃
