OK, this is a bug: I see it now.  The 'pysh' profile, the ancestor to
the 'sh' one, does not have this problem.  I didn't write the 'sh'
code, so Ville will need to look into this.  I've created a ticket for
the problem:

Thanks for the report: it would have been ugly to release 0.7.2 with this bug.

You can use the 'pysh' one in the meantime if you want: while it
doesn't make use of some of the internal niceties of sh, it works :)

Cheers,
