Has anyone noticed that ctrl-c randomly stops working in the new bash? I use rxvt-unicode 9.06-2 and it happens in a terminal where ctrl-c worked while typing bash commands, it will suddenly stop working ie bash will not recognise the key-press.
There was a bug which stopped ctrl-c from working prior to bash 4.0.020 which appeared in conjunction with urxvt and tiling WMs, there is a thread on the urxvt ML [1] and on gnu.bash.bug [2]. This should be fixed by now. Are you using the newest bash package?

I have this problem for already a month or two. eg before bash 4.0 Also using urxvt (and wmii). I'v just been too lazy to seek help. So I'll just wait for fixed packages I guess :) Dieter
