A recent update has borked py37-ipython and py38-ipython for me on two Intel 
machines on macOS 11.1 with XCode 12.3.

Symptoms: run ipython.  In ipython, do the following:

import sys
sys.<Tab key> # i.e. press the Tab key.  This should show a list of functions 
and attributes of sys.  If ipython is borked it returns nothing
sys.argv?
sys.<Tab key> # this produces a ipython crash.


At first I only had this on the laptop where I had updated to Big Sur a couple 
of days ago, and then followed the migration steps, which updated all ports to 
the latest versions.  The iMac, which had been updated to Big Sur several weeks 
ago, did not exhibit the issue.  I suspected some issue unique to the laptop, 
so did the usual troubleshooting steps.  Then I did a port selfupdate on the 
iMac and it now had the same problem.  I used Time Machine to roll back to 
before the port selfupdate, and ipython is working correctly again.

I'd file a bug, but I don't know which port is the problem yet.

Best regards,

Kevin
