[IPython-dev] MultipleInstanceError

In IPython dev, if you try to start an IPython instance from within an
IPython instance, it raises MultipleInstanceError. What is the purpose
of this? It breaks a use-case of mine, which is to start PuDB from
within IPython, then to open the IPython interpreter from within PuDB
while debugging?  Is the new way to do things to somehow reattach to
the same IPython instance?

I've CCd the PuDB list.
