Strange, it worked fine for me once. I have incorporated Daisuke's
work in readline-2.2 and I am about to send the patches to GNU,
because he himself has not done that. Also made clear-screen and
visual-bell work, and no termcap is needed anymore. Too bad I forgot
to take the patch with me.

Hmm, I must have found them somewhere else then, so it's not GNU. I'll
take a look when I'm at home.
