I think they've changed the comint behavior in Emacs 21 on purpose.
Using M-x shell
and then experimenting with
stty echo
and stty -echo
on the one hand and with
M-x set-variable comint-process-echoes [ t / nil ]
I see that shell-mode in Emacs work perfectly with our without echo.
probably, we should learn what they changed with (shell) and do likewise..
