Hi,

How about changing pdb's behavior, that it disables readline only if the 
passed stream is not the stdout stream?

Also when looking at doctest module, I found that bdb's trace_dispatch 
was overridden to set the debugger's output stream to something other 
than stdout. I presume, that since prior to 2.5, pdb never took the 
stdin and stdout arguments and that overridden method was needed to make 
pdb use a stream other than stdout, but now that 2.5 allows us to pass 
the output stream in init method of pdb, that function is no longer 
needed.

Thanks
