Can you try chaning your prompt and see if this happens? export PS1='${HOSTNAME}:${PWD}>' <and now do the resize experiment>
I tried it and it changed the result for the better. Long lines no longer wrap on to themselves, which was my chief complaint. I never thought of the PS1 being the culprit.
Normally, I do the following: export PS1="\033[1;31m[\u@\h \W]\\$ \033[0;39m" to get a red prompt string so that its easy to find. Apparently something in that is causing the problem. I'll research it.
Thank you for pointing me in the right direction.
I had similar \003 .. chars in my prompt - and issues with editing long commands. After looking at this thread - I did a little digging and narrowed down to my PS1 setting.
I guess its still a bug in bash. (need to bugzilla it)
