Something seems to be messed up in the read_escape function :
it should read the string "[?\\C-0]"
it reads the 'C' and the '-', then it returns the char '0' + ctrl_modifier,
and back in read1, the next char read is '0' again.
Which means that in read1 at the failure point,
next_char = 0x00000030
and c = 0x04000030

I tried to step inside read_escape, but not sure what's going wrong here.

Greetings,
