I just put up bash 1.04 on several BSD mini/mainframes here, and it looks
good.  There was one thing I felt I had to do, however - Richard Stallman,
don't read this - I turned flow control back on.

(Specifically, I commented out about 6 lines in readline.c, starting
 with /temp.t_stopc = -1;/.)

It fixed some pretty serious problems with regular terminals, hooked up
on various configurations of RS232 and Ethernet, which basically couldn't
reliably handle the heavy line-editing load on something like autorepeating
\C-p.

Other than the loss of two editing control characters, does anyone see a
down side to this?

I still have a problem that crops up intermittenly on X11 xterm, where small
outputs (e.g., from pwd or jobs) get stuck somewhere before they get
to the screen.
