It is _not_ changed. Provide a recipe, starting from emacs -Q. If you do need to change the binding of the key for some reason, then do so in each of the minibuffer key maps. E.g., (define minibuffer-local-must-match-map (kbd "DEL") 'backward-delete-char) etc. But AFAICT, the global binding of DEL (and ) is in effect in the minibuffer, and the global binding does not kill a char, it deletes it.
