Hello FBSD people!

I want to give an additional report to bug identified by no. from topic.
I run 6.1 on i386 and issuing a command: `kbdcontrol -b visual` makes
my bash-2.05b interactive sessions give 'visual bell' on pressing the `b'
key.

This is not reproducible in csh, also a Vim instance running within bash is
OK
- gives the right visual bell effect not binded to `b' key.

Resetting by `kbdcontrol -b XX.XX` does not solve the issue, pressing `b'
in bash still gives a bell this time being audible.

Hope this helps in any way possible,
thanks for your great efforts,

PS
