Comment:
I looked into this and tested for a while, and I don't think the issue
exists any longer:
1. Loading locals from a `PYTHONSTARTUP` file works fine in a Django shell
2. Having a `PYTHONSTARTUP` file does not break autocomplete for the
Django shell
3. It seems to be expected behavior that the the autocomplete function
from a `PYTHONSTARTUP` file does not work in the Django shell since
`readline` can have one completer function. The completer function in the
Django shell is the one it set itself, which overwrites one set up by a
`PYTHONSTARTUP` file.

I believe this was fixed by a combination of
1f6b2e7a658594e6ae9507c5f98eb429d19c0c9d and
1bbb98d9a4b7d83e422b14ae2429cb368eff5a13. This comment on GitHub may help
to explain the fix:

I can do more investigation on this if needed.
