SuSE 9.0: linebreak problem with ansi color in prompt

Hi!

I have a problem with the line break in a shell window.

When I set PS1='\033[31m\u@\h[\#]<SSH>:\W/\$ \033[0m' and type a long
command string that forces a line break only a "carriage return" is
done. The "line feed" is missing and so the current line will be
overwritten.
This problem occurs in both konsole and xterm, so I think it's a problem
with bash or key maps or ...
In SuSE Linux prior 9.0, Tru64 Unix, AIX, Solaris this works fine.

Without ansi color, when I set PS1='\u@\h[\#]<SSH>:\W/\$ ', all works fine.

SuSE said, that this is not a installation problem and so they can not
help me.

Can any body else help?
