Bummer.  Without access to Windows, I'm a bit stumped then.  You might try to 
see if there is any difference here between ipython and a plain python shell 
using your readline stuff.

FWIW, if I type something similar in Linux, there's no problem.  So it _might_ 
be a readline issue, perhaps.

Sorry not to be of more use on this one, but it's hard without having access 
to a testing system myself.  As you are quickly realizing, you'll be the one 
doing the heavy lifting on Win-specific stuff, not me :)

Best,
