A small correction to my previous mail,  problem [1] is observed on bash prompt
too. I was trying to check for a situation that is happening in script where
output-redirection is involved. The original snippet that led me to this
experiment is as follows  ---

echo -n "Status : " >> logfile
cat results >> logfile
echo "" >> logfile
echo "----------------" >> logfile

results never contain a new line, but a simple string consisting of english
alphabets (dumped into this file by some tool before).

Expected output in logfile for this sequence is of the form --

Status : XXXXXXX
-----------------------

Most of the times the output is as expected, but sometimes it turns out to be
like

Status :
XXXXXXX-----------------------
