Subject: Re: weird keyboard behaviour
Cc: bug-readline AT gnu DOT org

The source of the bug is in readline/bind.c as reported before, e.g. in
http://sourceware.cygnus.com/ml/cygwin/1999-02/msg00909.html

A partial fix appears on
line 670 of bind.c from Cygnus bash-src.tar.gz
and line 633 of bind.c from Gnu readline-4.1.tar.gz

However the size of the buffer returned by
_rl_read_file( ) is not correct. It still includes the \r 
suppressed by text mode processing.
To fix the bug, add the line indicated below.

#if 0
  if (i < file_size)
#else
         file_size = i;   <======  Add this line here
  if (i < 0)
#endif
