We had a very similar workaround before for pyreadline, which had a similar issue:

This technically will regress the issues above, but those issues just mean that import readline is broken in general, so the user should fix it instead (by e.g. uninstalling pyreadline).

Should we backport this? It carries some risk of regressions if someone has a broken readline which e.g. emits warnings at import time, but at the same time it fixes an issue which is probably more common in the wild.
