Summary: GNU readline 4.2 prompt issue

Initial Comment:
When Python is linked with GNU readline 4.2, using
raw_input() without a prompt causes the most recent
non-empty prompt to be used. GNU readline 4.1 and
before don't have this behavior. I don't want it,  but
I don't know how to disable it (I am passing an empty
string for the prompt to readline()).

I can't reproduce this.

(looking at old open readline bugs -- me?)
