On bash-4.0 and 4.1 it runs ok, the speed improvement is great, but on
bash-3.2.39 I get lots of errors:

    FAIL: Sync after INT at timeout

This is what's in dbg.log:

    PASS: Tab should complete alias
    send: sending "\u0019\u0003" to { exp9 }^M
    ^M
    expect: does "" (spawn_id exp9) match regular expression ".*\^C\r\n/@$"?
    no^M 
    ^M
    ^M
    expect: does "\r\n" (spawn_id exp9) match regular expression
    ".*\^C\r\n/@$"? no^M 
    /@^M
    expect: does "\r\n/@" (spawn_id exp9) match regular expression
    ".*\^C\r\n/@$"? no^M 
    expect: timed out^M
    FAIL: Sync after INT at timeout

The ^C doesn't seem to get through to 'expect' on bash-3.2?
On bash-4.0 and bash-4.1 it looks like this:

    PASS: Tab should complete alias
    send: sending "\u0019\u0003" to { exp9 }^M
    ^M
    expect: does "" (spawn_id exp9) match regular expression ".*\^C\r\n/@$"?
    no^M 
    ^C^M
    expect: does "^C" (spawn_id exp9) match regular expression
    ".*\^C\r\n/@$"? no^M 
    ^M
    ^M
    expect: does "^C\r\n" (spawn_id exp9) match regular expression
    ".*\^C\r\n/@$"? no^M 
    /@^M
    expect: does "^C\r\n/@" (spawn_id exp9) match regular expression
    ".*\^C\r\n/@$"? yes^M

Is the error reproducable on bash-3.2?
