   fault, but I filed the report because I saw bash windows locking on ^Z
   typed inadvertantly at the shell, which wasn't a problem with the
   C-shell varients we've used. The behavior was identical under SunOS
   3.5's suntools, under X11R3 (both the console window and those started
   up by uwm), and under MGR.

There was a flaw in the implementation of signal handling in readline.c.
I have since fixed the flaw, but I have also made readline and history a
library, which means that the relavant files reside in a different
directory, and a new file is in bash, and lots of changes in
organization have taken place.

New release in a couple of days.
