The long text above is for Jaunty 9.04. I have rechecked the bug in Karmic beta for bash 4.0.33, and the bug is still here.

My steps to reproduce were:
1)Cd to a directory with multibyte characters in name
2)Write some command longer than terminal horizontal size.
3)Try to edit the line in different ways (move backwards by means of |<-|) and see messy behaviour. Press |/|\| to see the previous command, you typed, and see that the output is messy again.
4)Execute PS1=\$ and see that the bugs are no more with the different prompt.
