Indeed, the fix will be present in the next 2.6 beta.

As for the 2.5 branch, it is in maintenance mode and we want to minimize
the amount the potential breakage that we might cause there. I don't
think the present bug is important enough to warrant a backport, but
other developers may disagree and fix 2.5 as well :-)

(as for 3.0, it is unaffected)

FWIW I also tried the fix on a Windows box with Python 2.5.1.  The
failure there is different since the Windows command prompt apparently
uses cp437 as its encoding:

Applying the patch resulted in correct behavior on Windows as well.

I just stumbled on this bug, it is still a problem in 2.5 and 2.6.  I
tried the supplied patch on 2.6b2 and it works.  Before the patch:

Python 2.6b2 (r26b2:65082, Jul 18 2008, 13:36:54) 
[GCC 4.1.3 20070929 (prerelease) (Ubuntu 4.1.2-16ubuntu2)] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> ustr = u'¿Cómo'  
>>> print ustr
¿Cómo
>>> import code
>>> code.interact()
Python 2.6b2 (r26b2:65082, Jul 18 2008, 13:36:54)

Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
(InteractiveConsole)
>>> ustr = u'¿Cómo'  
>>> print ustr
¿Cómo

After the patch:

Python 2.6b2 (r26b2:65082, Jul 18 2008, 13:36:54) 
[GCC 4.1.3 20070929 (prerelease) (Ubuntu 4.1.2-16ubuntu2)] on linux2

>>> code.interact()

>>> ustr = u'¿Cómo'
>>> print ustr
¿Cómo

I realize it's a pretty little problem, but it was quite puzzling to
track down, because naturally I wasn't doing that exactly but rather
using a tool that under the covers was using code.interact() and mostly
behaves just like a bare python prompt except it was mangling unicode
string literals.  Any chance the fix could get in the code base?  The
last comment makes it sound like the patch was missing at one point. 
It's there now.  Is there any concern about it breaking something?
