Martin Panter added the comment:

V3 of my patch skips the Readline tests in cases involving non-ASCII bytes when 
the locale seen by Readline would be ASCII. Readline may translate the 
non-ASCII bytes to escape sequences, and treat them as special Meta (Alt) key 
combinations. This behaviour depends on Readline configuration (“set 
convert-meta off” in /etc/inputrc in my case).

It also includes a potential workaround for Android, depending on the 
resolution of Issue 28997.
