Package: rxvt-unicode
Version: 9.05-1+lenny1
Severity: normal

I set my bash PS1 variable like this:

bold_start=`tput bold`
bold_end=`tput sgr0`
PS1='\['${bold_start}'\...@\h:\w$\['${bold_end}'\] '

Note the \[ and \] , which are exactly what bash documentation
recommends to tell readline about nongraphic characters in the prompt.
It works in other terminal emulators - I tested with the linux console
and with roxterm, at least.  And it works even with urxvt - _until_ I
changed my locale to *.UTF-8.  Now, the following happens:

i...@matica:~/foo$ ls misss1-10-the_last_night_of_the_world.wav
#i move cursor here                ^
#i hit Alt-2
(arg: 2) ls misss1-10-the_last_night_of_the_world.wav
#cursor is here           ^
#(still ok)
#i hit Alt-u (to uppercase 2 words)
i...@matica:~/foo$ ls misss1LAST_NIGHTst_night_of_the_world.wav
# cursor is here                     ^

Again, roxterm handles this correctly, irrespective of locale, so it's
not a bash or readline problem.
