The SAGE clisp *must* be built with readline support.  If you don't do that,
then, e.g., maxima_console() would not have readline support, which would
be a very miserable experience.

It's almost certainly possible to program around the readline problem
in axiom.py
by using some more complicated code there to synchronize things.
That's probably
the way to go.  And, of course, figuring out how maxima can disable readline
at startup is well worth doing.
