I've noticed over a wide variety of operating systems that when you
paste from an application into psql through a terminal (currently
using the default gnome terminal in ubuntu), large pastes tend to get
garbled with some of the input getting truncated. While working on
functions, this is annoying in the extreme.

Interestingly, the one platform that tends not to suffer from this is
windows so I'm guessing this is a readline problem. Has anybody else
noticed this? Is there a workaround?
