fellow SMGL users,

is anybody experiencing wierd line wraps since the last update of the readline library?

my xterm, konsole and even a normal console window will wrap the first line at some arbitrary point:

wraps here

[obelix:/home/llemmens] V

llemmens> lllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll

llllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll

It appears to depend on the length of the prompt: If I go to a deep directory:

[obelix:/usr/lib/mozilla/chrome/calendar/skin/classic/calendar]

llemmens> lllllll

llllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll

And then if I go even further it looks as if my stack is overwritten:

[obelix:/usr/lib/mozilla/chrome/calendar/skin/classic/calendar/timepicker]

fd /wapsw-setcabs cd ..lllemmens> lllllllllllll

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

this is junk that appears out of the blue and changes on each next character entry.
