[New-bugs-announce] [issue12869] PyOS_StdioReadline is printing the prompt on stderr

[Albert Zeyer]

New submission from Albert Zeyer <albzey at googlemail.com>:

PyOS_StdioReadline from Parser/myreadline.c is printing the prompt on stderr.

I think it should print it on the given parameter sys_stdout. Other readline implementations (like from the readline module) also behave this way.

Even if it really is supposed to write on stderr, it should use the `sys.stderr` and not the system stderr.
