To note, the problem goes away when bash is built without the multibyte
option (which is the default), e.g. "make install PKG_OPTIONS.bash=".
This implies that the multibyte code messes up the non-printing
characters' length calculation.
AFAIK multibyte is not the default in freebsd/darwin/etc where this
problem did not occur. Not a NetBSD problem then, per se, but something
which occurs with the netbsd default build options, which differ from
the rest of the world?
I don't need multibyte, so the problem is solved for me now. So from my
perspective, the PR can be closed and considered a bash bug... it could
still be an issue in netbsd libc multibyte routines, though, I just
didn't dig that far.
Br,
Jussi
