I plan to update to F-14 in a few weeks, so I can retest this with
python 2.7. So I'll wait with filling a ticket, till python 2.7 has the
same problem (if it works there, it's ignorable).

Great.

Now I've tested "my_bundled_libs" branch again and the first commit
there is ready to get applied. There are the same tests failing for
me...
That's the commit:
http://github.com/tomspur/ipython/commit/eba34c585ae2309f74ed83c8f0348792a0c20bb5

The next commit on that branch is not ready to merge, because I might
be too optimistic with using the python own uuid module instead of
guid...
So don't merge this commit, just the one from above:
http://github.com/tomspur/ipython/commit/dedc4193e3ebc206999922d9cbeb79ac75ae16ee

Thanks
