To explain my post a little more, I think the new code is the right
thing.  If someone is astute enough to type in multi-line Python
commands at an Emacs interactive prompt, then they will likely be
astute enough to realize that they need to add an extra newline.

Plus I don't think the usage pattern is typical in the first place;
there is a comint buffer for such interaction.
