root@thistle 1> sleep 10I don't care too much if it shows up after I've started the command, but I sometimes scroll back in the command history to get a command, and then hit control-c to leave it on the screen without executing it (usually when I want to cut and paste bits of the command). So I don't like this. :(

It seems to be related to a change in the kernel:

But you can revert to the old behaviour with "stty -echoctl":
root@thorn 1> sleep 10^CYay!
root@thorn 1> stty -echoctl
root@thorn 2> sleep 10
