It has everything to do with your stty settings. ^v is normally mapped to lnext (literal next-character) on terminals, and readline 5.0 apparently tries to honor your stty settings (where lnext is a perfect match to the readline function quoted-insert) in preference to your .inputrc. Meanwhile, emacs likes ^q as quoted-insert, although terminals usually default ^q to start, start overrides lnext if both are given the same character, and stop (usually ^s) without start will let you hang a terminal. So, try "stty lnext ^q stop undef start undef" and see if that helps with your desired setting for ^v. As to whether readline should be prefering your stty settings over your .inputrc, I will have to do more investigation. - -- Life is short - so eat dessert first!
