Thanks for the report. The problem involved redrawing only the changed
portion of the prompt string (which is what readline's redisplay does by
default). When the first differing character appears in a portion of the
prompt that is bracketed by non-printable characters, you have to redraw
the entire prompt to make sure that all the escape sequences are output.
