 That is not the fault of the interface. Compare:
 {{{
 sage: os.system("echo hi");
 hi
 sage: os.system("echo -n hi");
 hisage:
 }}}
 I think most common lisp print routines do NOT include a trailing newline,
 so I think the above behaviour is expected. ecl_eval and friends should
 not send anything to STDOUT by themselves.

 Thanks for spotting the typos.

 I'm changing back to needs_review to invite a more lisp-savvy reviewer.
