bash problem

It appears that there may be an issue when bash terminates a shell as a result 
of TMOUT expiring.

I was attempting to enter "dc_command show media | grep YD" to the shell and 
this is the terminal output...

OLDuser@hostname $ dc_command show mediatimed out waiting for input: auto-logout
NEWuser@hostname $  | grep YD
-bash: syntax error near unexpected token `|'

If the command line had been something like " cd fred && rm -rf *"
and the TMOUT had expired just after the '&&' had been entered then the "rm-rf 
*" would have been executed in the `cwd` of the parent process rather than in 
'fred'

It looks like the TMOUT isn't re-started after any shell input but only after a 
'\n' is seen.
