If do-lowercase-version is bound to a key that is either not an uppercase
character or is a character that is its own lowercase version, then
readline will either loop forever with no way to interrupt (if the compiler
optimized out the recursion) or will exceed the stack depth and segfault.
This sounds more like a "my arm hurts when I do that" kind of situation,
but readline still shouldn't crash.
