bug#1304: M-% not interpreted correctly - restatement.

[Robert Dunn]

GNU Emacs 22.2.1 (x86_64-suse-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 2.12.9)

M-% (replace) returns M-1/2 on the message line at the bottom

All subsequent keystrokes produce strange characters.

The "%" character does appear properly in normal text.

Two screenshots - one taken after the command M-% was
issued and one typing the same characters as before showing the change -
can be viewed at
http://emacsbugs.donarmstrong.com/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1304

If there is anything else you need please ask.

Regards

Robert
