1.  When the last command line is terminated by 2 or more same letters,
typing <C-P DEL> hides the second letter from the last.
	Eg. The last line is:
		bash$ echo aaa
		aaa
	    Typing <C-P DEL>, I get:
		*bash$ echo a _
			       <--- cursor
	    Then, echo outputs:
		aa

2.  Quoting control codes by <C-V> shows a wrong line.
	Eg. Typing <C-V C-A C-V C-B>, I get:
		bashC-AB_
			 <--- cursor
	    Then, typing <C-L>:
		bash$ C-AC-B_
			     <--- cursor
