New submission from Eric Haszlakiewicz <ehaszla at transunion.com>:

When prompting for a password during a command like "hg pull" mercurial
normally hides the characters that are typed in.  However, if you suspend it
(with ^Z) then resume (with fg) the terminal settings reset back to
displaying everything that is typed:

> hg pull
http authorization required
realm: Mercurial Repository Authentication
user: ehaszla
password:                <--- nothing displayed when typing
[1]+  Stopped                 hg pull
> fg
hg pull
mypassword               <--- text IS displayed now

...etc, rest of pull output...
