Deleting characters not working while in a readline() enviroment

[MasonProtter]

1. Emacs version 26.1

2. Julia version 0.6.1

3. julia-repl version (MELPA) Package-Version: 20171116.46
   Version: 0.0.1

4. self-contained steps to replicate the issue:

julia> readline()

then type some characters, mess up and try to delete them with the backspace key. This causes "^?" to be inserted into the string instead of deleting a character.

Can't replicate on master or dev (but not sure what fixed it). Please try a more recent version.

I also cannot replicate this one on master fwiw.

I just cloned the master and tried again, still does not work for me. I'm using emacs mac if that is relevant.

I just checked and if I open a term window (or anti-term or multi-term) and open julia within that term session and try readline() I get the same issue so I guess this is not a julia-repl issue. Interestingly, I don't experience the same issue using python's repl.
