No confusion on your part.  I encountered the same problem and checked in
the change last night.  This was the checkin message:

    Change PyOS_Readline declaration to match the recent change to
    myreadline.c (see Patch 512981).  I changed stdin to sys_stdin in the
    body of the function, but did not change stderr to sys_stdout, though I
    suspect that may be the correct course.  I don't know the code involved
    well enough to judge.
