New submission from Terry J. Reedy:
C:\Users\Terry>py -2 -m idlelib.idle -c "print True"
>>>
*** Error in script or command!
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<pyshell#0>", line 1
print True
^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

In answer, phihag points out that PyShell.py has future import and compiles with
code = compile(source, filename, "exec")
The fix is to add dont_inherit=True.
