This issue has been discussed several times in the interim, most recently
with the thread beginning at

http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-readline/2015-03/msg00010.html

I provided a detailed explanation in

http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-readline/2015-03/msg00012.html

The discussion continued on the python bug tracker

http://bugs.python.org/issue23735

where it appears that the python crew will fix the problem by installing
a SIGWINCH signal handler to handle window size updates that occur when
readline is not actively handling a callback.
