The real issue is actually that this

  "\C-u": kill-whole-line

setting in the .inputrc file is ignored if ^U is the kill character.
I could check that by changing it to

  "\C-u": backward-word

The setting is honored only after a "stty kill undef" *before* executing
the readline-based command (such as bash or gp).
