[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

1. emacs -Q
2. Evaluate:
  (setq w32-lwindow-modifier 'hyper
        w32-pass-lwindow-to-system nil)

  (global-set-key (kbd "H-k") 'kill-word)
3. H-k

Expected: `kill-word' executed
Actual: `k' inserted

This fixes the problem: (setq w32-use-fallback-wm-chars-method t)

Confirmed on Windows 7 and 8.1.  The same configuration worked on Emacs
24.3 and 24.5, respectively.
