Oh, adding to that: I just tried it on a linux box. There the ^O works
despite still being enabled as the discard character (I checked with
stty -a </dev/pts/0 where pts/0 was a terminal with bash sitting in a
prompt). I suppose Linux handles the discard character different than
NetBSD in this scenario.
