Just put the following line in your ~/.inputrc:

"\e\C-b": backward-word

The man page says the colon *must not* have a space after the key
sequence.

	$ bind -P | grep backward-word

You should see something like:

	backward-word can be found on "\e\C-b", "\eb".

Note the addition of the new key binding to the stock binding of M-b.
