Martin Panter added the comment:

input-readline.v2.patch sets stderr=DEVNULL so that the prompt does not come 
out in the test log.

A disadvantage of this is that if there is a failure, any error messages, stack 
trace, etc is also lost. To fix this properly, we would probably have to 
capture stderr using a generalized communicate() loop, like I have done at the 
bottom of 
<https://hg.python.org/cpython/annotate/v3.6.0b4/Lib/test/test_readline.py#l231>
 (see also Issue 1260171).
