You're absolutely right (about dinner, too):  the bot was staring at
ceval.c, and stopped at the PRINT_EXPR opcode instead of the PRINT_ITEM
opcode.  The OP could indeed *try* supplying his own displayhook function,
but it wouldn't do a lick of good.  I think I detect bot laughter in the
background.
