The code that dictates this behavior is in /Parser/myreadline.c and has not been rectified yet in either Python 2.7 (http://hg.python.org/cpython/file/bfdf366a779a/Parser/myreadline.c#l107) or the default branch (http://hg.python.org/cpython/file/c64dec45d46f/Parser/myreadline.c#l111). Specifically, within these functions, references to standard error should actually be references to standard out.

The attached file is a proposed patch for this bug on the 2.7 branch, bringing interpreter behavior into accordance with the Python documentation (http://docs.python.org/library/functions.html#raw_input), which states that the prompt is written to standard out, as opposed to standard error.
