>Description:
I was trying pwsafe (pkg attached) and stumbled over                                                
a weird bug. When compiled with editline, when I do                                            
        pwsafe --createdb -f test                                                                   
the first password prompt echoes the typed characters;                                              
the second one is fine.                                                                             
When I use GNU readline instead, all passwords are hidden,                                          
as they should be.                                                                                  
>How-To-Repeat:
Compile pwsafe package. (will be attached to PR)
For comparison, uncomment USE_GNU_READLINE to compile against GNU readline.
I'll also attach kdumps of behaviour with editline and GNU readline.
>Fix:
No idea.
