Looking at Vitaly's test code in test_jython_readline_isue.py, the following lines are key.

# Doesn't work with jython 2.5.3 (but works fine with jython 2.5.2)
_REMOTE_CMD = ["jython", "-c", "import sys; sys.stdout.write(sys.stdin.readline()); sys.stdout.flush();"]

So what change was made between 2.5.2 and 2.5.3 that stopped it from working?

Was it this change?

But that change happened back in 2.5b4, which was years before 2.5.2 and 2.5.3.
