passwd - no stty echo after Ctrl-C

Platform: mipsel
BB version: 1.7.2 or i386

When issuing Ctrl-C during password entry, I still have invisible
characters at the ash prompt. The output is okay, though. As soon as I
call "stty echo" manually, the shell prompt is okay again.

Reproduce like this on i386:
bash $ ./busybox ash
ash $ ./busybox passwd
Changing password for root
New password: [Ctrl-C]
ash $ <now type something>
ash $ stty echo  # repair

Can this be fixed?

Regards
