I can confirm that the patch works and have been using it for the past day; glad to have my multiline PS1 back.

Hi,

I can also confirm that this patch is working.
I hope it will soon be in portage together with another patch concerning the command-history (#59267). I already sent Aron Griffis a mail with both patches included.
