Can you (and anyone with Windows) test my pyreadline-errors branch:

https://github.com/takluyver/ipython/tree/pyreadline-errors

This catches the errors coming from the differences in pyreadline. For now,
we're not doing anything, so commands you enter in a debug session will show
up when you press Up afterwards. It's easy enough to change that to always
reset readline, but that will mean a fairly expensive operation to transfer
1000 lines from the database to readline, even when it's not necessary. But
that branch should stop the errors, at least.

Thanks,
Thomas
