For me the question remains, whether zsh from which vim is started recognizes ALT-Backspace well and vim does not... ?!


Also, more to the point, see what Zsh thinks represents alt+backspace for you:

(in zsh:)
$ bindkey -L | grep backward-kill-word


For me, that returns:
bindkey "^W" backward-kill-word
bindkey "^[^H" backward-kill-word
bindkey "^[^?" backward-kill-word

Which means that all three of <Ctrl>+<w>, <Alt>+<Delete> (== <Esc>+<Delete>), and <Alt>+<Backspace> (== <Esc>+<Backspace>) do the same thing. Maybe your Backspace and Delete are reversed? (Seems unlikely, because that makes operating in Vim kind of awkward, IMO, so you'd've probably fixed it already.)
