emacs hangs in ansi-term

This bug report will be sent to the Free Software Foundation,
not to your local site managers!
Please write in English, because the Emacs maintainers do not have
translators to read other languages for them.

Your bug report will be posted to the bug-gnu-emacs@gnu.org mailing list,
and to the gnu.emacs.bug news group.

Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug
and the precise symptoms of the bug:

The problem that was discussed in the gnu.emacs.help newsgroup happens
by me always. To produce the bug I do the following:

$ emacs -q --no-site-file
M-x ansi-term
Run program: /bin/bash

Now type in in the buffer *ansi-term* for example 'ls' and then emacs
seems to be in a endless loop and consumes a lots of memory. Stopping
with C-g is not possible. This happens also with the most other
commands. E.g. 'echo $ABC' (ABC is a non exixting env variable)
produces strange output. 'echo $HOME' causes the same as ls. Emacs
hangs!
