Yes. That is correct. The key is you must be in vi mode.
Emacs mode doesn't have this issue. Can you confirm that
you are in vi-editing mode? (set -o vi)
I am able to reproduce this on i386 with 4.6 and ksh from
HEAD of cvs as well as macppc-current (Nov 2nd snapshot):
OpenBSD 4.6-current (GENERIC) #185: Mon Nov 2 12:44:37 MST 2009
