Comment (by nad@…):

 I can reproduce the problem (on 10.10) as long as port `py34-readline` is
 not also installed.  By default, MacPorts Pythons are linked with the
 MacPorts-provided BSD  `libedit` library.  The `py*-readline` ports
 replace the corresponding Python readline modules with ones linked with
 the (MacPorts-provided) GNU `readline` instead of `libedit`.  The Pythons
 from python.org installers currently link with the Apple-supplied
 `libedit` in OS X; those versions of `libedit` are older than the current
 MacPorts one.  So, one workaround is to just install `py34-readline`.
 That is currently required for some other ports, like `py34-ipython`,
 anyway.

 There has been at least one other issue reported previously on the Python
 bug tracker that seemed to implicate the newer version of libedit provided
 in MacPorts (http://bugs.python.org/issue23599).  I meant to investigate
 it further before taking action, like reporting upstream, but I haven't
 gotten to it yet.  Feel free to jump in.
