Line 3468 of execute_cmd.c is: putchar('\n');
The purpose of this line is to emit a newline when the user hits ^D at
the 'select' prompt (#?).  If this line were not present, the cursor
would stay on the same line as the #? prompt, which would be unsightly.

However, I think this should be (f)putc('\n',stderr);

Thanks for the report.
