FWIW, I have noticed a limitation on how much can be pasted into psql
without freezing it (not more than a few hundred characters, for me).
It's not "garbled" ... psql just gets stuck and has to be SIGTERM'd.
However, there's enough stuff in the chain that I'm not sure
psql/readline is (solely) to blame --- I'm typically working through
a remote xterm over an ssh'd X11 connection.
