Subject: bug#12409: 24.2.50; OS X Python completion leaks junk to inferior-python-mode buffer

Hello.

In the trunk, it does behave much better:

 >>> aaaa = 4
aaaa = 4
>>> aaaaaa = 6
aaaaaa = 6
>>> aaaa

The first TAB on aa completes to aaaa, no garbage characters.
But on the second TAB, the completion buffer says:

Click <mouse-2> on a completion to select it.
In this buffer, type RET to select the completion near point.

Possible completions are:
aaaa
aaaaaa'^M

i.e. a trailing '^M is shown.  That is a real carriage return, not ^ and M btw.
