The CTRL-C is ignored, and once Enter is hit, it appears that the first character is taken off the beginning of the command typed, and the rest is echoed back.  For example, if I type the command 'date' on the command line, but then hit CTRL-C after the 'e', nothing happens. But after I hit Enter, I get the shell error: 'bash: ate: command not found'

I can't reproduce this on Mac OS X or RHEL 7 with bash-5.0.17.
