I have libreadline 7.0_p3.

Here's a simple test case, last \p still show the query buffer:

psql -X postgres



postgres=# select version();                                                     version


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------PostgreSQL
10beta2@decb08ebdfon x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, compiled by gcc
 
(Gentoo 4.9.3 p1.5, pie-0.6.4) 4.9.3, 64-bit
(1 row)

postgres=# \p
select version();
postgres=# \r
Query buffer reset (cleared).
postgres=# \p
select version();

On a 9.6:

postgres=# select version();                                                    version


------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------PostgreSQL

(1 row)

postgres=# \p
select version();
postgres=# \r
Query buffer reset (cleared).
postgres=# \p
Query buffer is empty.
