Re: delete-char vs "mouse-region" and "transient-mark-region"

[Richard M. Stallman]

    1. $ emacs -q

    2. Create two lines of text:

    line1
    line2

    3. Mark the first one using the mouse and press C-d (delete-char). The
       marked region will be deleted.

That does not happen when I try it.  C-d just deletes the character
after point.

    In GNU Emacs 22.0.50.1 (i386-mingw-nt5.1.2600)
     of 2005-06-26 on NONIQPC

Did someone make Emacs on Windows behave differently in this situation?
