Seems to me that the terminal mode adjustment applied when meta_flag is
non-zero ought to also determine whether the escape sequence is sent.
Wondering if it makes sense for readline not to send out the meta_on escape
sequence if rl_prep_terminal is called with a meta_flag of 0 since that
disables the terminal mode adjustments for 8 bit input.
Currently using 6.3-release patch 6 on a Gentoo 64 bit Linux 3.10.
