Eclipse configuration

I've just upgraded to Eclipse 20110916-0149 (Indigo). In a Ruby Source Editor pane, I've noticed a change in behaviour for ctl-backspace (the delete-previous word action). This used to back up from the start of one indented line to the end of the previous line, but now no longer does that.

Consider:

def foo( bar )
    fubar
end

Starting with the cursor on line 4, ctl-backspace'ing four times will delete \n, 'end', \n and 'fubar' respectively, but after that it won't delete the indentation spaces on line 2.

Similarly, on the following line:

#comment

ctl-backspace will not delete the # character.

I'm using DLTK 3.0.0.v20110424, and I've attached my Eclipse configuration.
