[Bug 1133507] [NEW] Top, winecfg and possibly other programs break custom bashrc bindings

[TomasHnyk]

Public bug reported:

Steps to reproduce (in terminal):
1. bind '"\e[A": history-search-backward'
2. ls bla
3. echo bla
4. ls ble
5. write "l" and pres upper arrow: ls ble and upon another press ls bla should appear (sidesteping echo bla)
6. run top and close it
7. repeat steps 2-5
Result:
echo is not skippen when listing history.

Expected result:
echo is skippend when doing hisotry-search-backword.

Tested in gnome-terminal, xterm, on my account and on a guest account
all on 12.10.

My -bashrc on top of stok ubuntu .bashrc is this:
bind '"\e[A": history-search-backward'
bind '"\e[B": history-search-forward'
# that behaviour is for pageup and pagedown
bind '"\e[5~": previous-history'
bind '"\e[6~": next-history'

# show possibilities if tab ambigious
set show-all-if-ambiguous on
# ignore case when completing, lets see how it works
set completion-ignore-case on

shopt -s cdspell
HISTSIZE=10000
HISTCONTROL=ignoredups
HISTFILESIZE=10001
HISTTIMEFORMAT="%h/%d - %H:%M:%S "
shopt -s histappend
PROMPT_COMMAND="history -a; history -c; history -r; $PROMPT_COMMAND"
