Not at all. If the bug is more general, then let it be known. I just tried it again, and I don't get it on my Gutsy install. Perhaps there is something about my configuration on Gutsy that differs from what I have on Kubuntu and UbuntuME on the same machine, but I only get the symptom on the latter two. Presumably this DIFFERENCE symptom will also be of interest. Thank you for the feedback. I tried your example exactly, and mine works. I also tried with both set -o vi and set -o emacs, and I get the same thing: WORKS ON GUTSY. If anyone can pin down what I'm doing differently, it sounds like that will be an important key. I've also noticed all my CentOS systems DO NOT have the problem (an anomaly since most of the times I have worse luck with CentOS than with Ubuntu). Here is my env:
