44          following issue: There are parsing problems with compound assignments in several contexts,
45          including as arguments to builtins like `local', `eval', and `let', and
46          as multiple assignments in a single command.</para>

51          faults when using the delete-char function via a multiple-key sequence.

53          readline.</para>
