On Linux readline is 2 packages:

libreadline7 = 7.0
libreadline6 = 6.3

Using:

- Debian 8.7.1
- http://packages.debian.org/stretch/libreadline7

For the test in question, GREEK CAPITAL LETTER OMEGA U+03A9, you do:

Ctrl + Shift + U, release, 3a9, Enter

This still works on Linux, even with libreadline7. Chet is refusing to address
the issue:

So it looks like we will need a Cygwin specific patch?
