I tried adding the line to /etc/X11/Xmodmap -- It didn't work.
I also tried creating  ~/.Xmodmap and ~/.xmodmaprc files with the 
same data.  These did not work either.

I tried typing xmodmap -e "keycode 22 = BackSpace"   This worked for
the session.  I suppose I could put it in the .cshrc file but something
is still broken. 

It looks as if my /etc/X11/Xsession file is not being read.  Where
does this get called from?  I suspect that whatever is causing this
problem is also responsible for my xdm problem. /etc/X11/config also
looks OK.
