Thanks for the clarification. This appears to be a terminal behaviour issue.

It is user lack-of-understanding: there is no error here.

I believe lack of understanding is probably amongst the top reasons why
users post to the list and get happily enlightened.
I don't think I said there was an error though, but only asked if this was
normal behaviour, and apparently many standard Linux terminals get it
wrong. This looks a bit sad for a very terminal-driven OS.
