Description:
        [incorrect command found using ^r]

Repeat-By:
In user mode ($>):
        mount /cdrom
        ... (do some stuff)
        umount /cdrom
        ...
        ^r m

Instead of finding "mount /cdrom" it finds "umount /cdrom" and leaves the 
cursor blinking on the "m" of cdrom.
Hmmm.....

Fix:
