I distinctly remember fixing the problem.

I think my fix was just to send an extra line to axiom on startup.
This should work on all platforms.

I don't know what caused the problem. It wasn't a change in pexpect,
since I have not upgraded pexpect in over a year, I think. I must have
changed something in the SAGE expect interfaces that causes this
problem. In any case, it's fixed now. Sorry it took a while.
