This seems to be a readline 5.1 error. I was unable to reproduce it with
4.3 or 5.0.

Switching the link from libreadline.so.5 back to libreadline.so.5.0 made
this behave again.
Can you confirm you are running rl5.1? Given the segfault is readline not
in R itself, it is at the very least a change in behaviour in a supposedly
compatible version of a dynamic library so it seems to me the bug should
be assigned to readline not R.

That said, I just tried this where I seemed to have no ~/.RData file.
Pressing <Deletet><Return> leads to a SegFault.
I will pass this on R Core.
Thanks for the bug report.
