GDB PR 544: gdb.cp/annota2.exp and gdb.cp/annota3.exp sometimes FAIL with:
	FAIL: gdb.cp/annota3.exp: annotate-quit (pattern 1)

One can put `sleep (1)' at the end of _RL_OUTPUT_SOME_CHARS and type
	p 1<enter><ctrl-c>
to abort the prompt printing. Before the patch:
	(gdb) p 1
	$1 = 1
	Quit) (gdb) 
	(gdb) _
After the patch:
	[bash]jkratoch@host0.dyn.jankratochvil.net:/home/jkratoch/redhat/sources/readline# ../gdb/gdb -nx -silent(gdb) p 1
	$1 = 1
	(gdb) Quit
	(gdb) _

The readline patch posted upstream:
	http://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2008-03/msg00317.html

Application cannot easily supply its own RL_REDISPLAY_FUNCTION as a custom
function there changes the readline behavior:
	http://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2008-03/msg00340.html

BLOCK_SIGINT / RELEASE_SIGINT: Make it public and prefix it by `_rl_'.
RL_REDISPLAY: Wrap it by _RL_BLOCK_SIGINT / _RL_RELEASE_SIGINT.
