Here is what i am seeing:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~> >

the duplicate ">" is the issue.  Here is my PS1:

\[\033]61;[EMAIL PROTECTED]@\H \W>

as you can see, only a single ">"

This happens in xterm, cygwin bash shell, and my preferred terminal
mrxvt (from materm.sf.net).

It only just started happening.

It might be related to an exiting bug with tab complete adding a
duplicate character to the end of the line, check this out:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~> > ls db2Mgr.
db2Mgr.C  db2Mgr.h
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~> ls db2Mgr..
db2Mgr.C  db2Mgr.h
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~> ls db2Mgr..C
db2Mgr.C
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~> > ls db2Mgr.
db2Mgr.C  db2Mgr.h
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~> ls db2Mgr.C
ls: db2MgrC: No such file or directory
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~> >

I've seen the duplicate character before (in this case a period "."),
but only now, with the duplicate prompt character does it cause that
duplication in the prompt to go away.

Again this happens in cygwin bash shell, xterm and mrxvt.
