The readline 5.1 update has brought with it increased bugs in bash's
prompt length calculation when nonprinting characters are used.

My PS1:
PS1='\[\e[32;[EMAIL PROTECTED] \[\e[0m\][\w] \$ '

with latest bash and readline, bash positions the cursor 1 position to
the right of where it should be when cd-ed to the ~ directory.


Is there any ETA when the more severe length calculation bugs that have
existed since bash 3 will be fixed?

Thanks,

Max.
