Mmh, I don't see that behavior:

IPython profile: pysh
maqroll[~]|1> %magic
maqroll[~]|2> %cd

Could you try temporarily renaming ~/.ipython to ~/.ipython.foo or whatever and
restarting?  This will force a recreation of your config directory with fresh
files.  If that works, it will be some subtle conflict with the config files,
though I can't quite think of what it could be right now.

Let me know what that gives you and we'll try to track it down.

Best,
