[PATCH] inside table, delete-backward-char must not insert spaces when overwrite mode is on

[Achim Gratz <Stromeko@stromeko.net>]

* lisp/org.el (org-delete-backward-char): check for nil overwrite-mode before inserting 
spaces.

TINYCHANGE

There's probably a different/better way to do this, but this seemed the least intrusive.
This patch is in the public domain.
