It looks like it to me. It seems to disappear if you build Box without
editline support. Also I tested the editline example program "fileman"
(from libedit-20070831-2.10.tar.gz) and I coulnd't enter any special
characters with AltGr (e.g. AltGr+a), whereas I can in "cat" and in a
readline-enabled bash.
Cheers, Chris.
