Here's how to reproduce the problem: [~]> cat test.py import readline readline.get_completer_delims() [~]> echo 'execfile("test.py");print 10' \| python python: Objects/stringobject.c:111: PyString_FromString: Assertion `str !=((void *)0)' failed. Abort This was tested with 2.2.1 under RedHat 8.0. On c.l.py, a Mandrake 9.0 (py2.2.2) user reported a segfault with the same. Martin reported not seeing the problem with 2.3b1. However, others suggested still filing it for a possible backport, and also in case the fix was accidental.

Logged In: YES user_id=33168 revision 2.54 in Modules/readline.c fixed this problem. Patch #512981: Update readline input stream on sys.stdin/out change. The patch must be modified for 2.2.3 because there is an API change.

Logged In: YES user_id=12800 I obviously didn't get to this for 2.2.3. Reassigning to Fred who threatened to be the 2.2.4 RM.
