readline behaves differently in R than in bash

I "set editing-mode vi" in ~/.inputrc. In bash, it responds as
expected to (say) "dt,", which deletes characters upto the next comma.
It does not do this in R; instead, that series of keystrokes simply
causes the next two keystrokes to be consumed without any effect. I
guess it would be wrong to assume that R uses the same readline
implementation as bash? Is there anything I can set to get the
expected behaviour?
64-bit Cygwin DLL version 1.7.28
