Summary: Cygwin "tail -f file" then Ctrl-c causes typed characters to become

Distribution: --Distribution-Agnostic--
Originally reported in: None

Original bug number: 


Initial Comment:
Anonymous message posted by rkfranc...@yahoo.com

I have cygwin installed which installs bash-completion by default, even though 
the .bashrc lines are commented out.  But anyway, if I am in bash and I run 
"tail -f file" and then hit Ctrl-c I am returned back to bash but I can no 
longer see what I am typing, even though it is there.

I tried defaulting my .bashrc on the theory it was my colors (DIR_COLORS) but 
that did not work.  I found that I could type the command "reset" and that 
would restore bash but that is not a workaround I was happy with.

When I uninstalled bash-completion this invisible character problem went away.

Message:
There is no indication of the bash or bash-completion versions in use in this 
or the macports report, but I've just fixed a similar problem affecting bash < 
4 in Fedora EPEL 5 packages (bash 3.2.25, bash-completion 1.2):

Current bash-completion git should no longer have had this problem either:
