Re: [Pkg-shadow-devel] Bug#476519: shell-mode garbles input

[jidanni]

As http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=476519 says, maybe
it is a bash bug: with Debian sid's BASH_VERSION=3.2.33(1)-release
about half the time the below works normally, the other half some
magic hand sends "exit" to it, logging me out right away. The first
letter of which gets bitten off or something, here in an emacs shell window:
03:44 ~# env - su - nobody
bash: xit: command not found
(I do not have the bash-completion package installed, as per
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=468858 )
