Dmitry,
M-d invokes delete-word. The deletion is based on word-syntax.
You could write an different command using `skip-syntax-forward' and map the
new command to M-d.
`backward-kill-word' will have the same issue.
(FYI M-h runs mark-paragraph for me. I'm using emacs 24.3.)

Hi list. Here is my question.
Suppose this text:
int variable;
[
^
|
+- Pressing M-h here will erase ``variable;''. I don't like this behavior.
Is there a functionality to kill only punctuation char if it is enclosed by
delimiters or newlines?
More examples:
int array [
^
|
+ - Pressing M-h here kills ``array'' as well
int array []
^
|
+ - Pressing M-h here kills ``array'' as well
+ - pressing M-d Here kills ``int''
|
V
int array [];
int val;
Any ideas?
Could this be resolved by hacking syntax-table? Or we should rewrite
``backward-kill-ford'' and ``kill-word'' functions?
