Bash Version: 3.2
Patch Level: 9
Release Status: release

Description:
        Unicode composed characters in the shell prompt result in strange 
cursor behaviour when the prompt contains xterm escape codes.  I'm not 
sure if this is a Bash bug or a terminal bug, but I've tried this in 
several terminals (xterm, konsole) and in the text console, and it occurs 
with all of them.

Repeat-By:
        1. PS1="\w\[\033[0m\]"
        2. mkdir n̈
        (Note that the above is U+006E U+0308)
        3. cd n̈
        (At this point you will see the cursor is in the wrong place -- it's 
shifted four characters to the right.)
        4. start typing anything -- the cursor flies wildly all over the 
line
