About the bug with \C-u, the real issue (both in bash and readline)
is actually that the \C-u setting such as

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

in the .inputrc file is ignored if ^U is the kill character.

I could check that by changing this setting to

  "\C-u": backward-word

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

I've also mentioned that at

  https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1078428#10

for libreadline8t64.
