You're right but I don't know how to fix it. The thing is this doesn't break the regular IPython qtconsole when its version is >=1.0, but it certainly breaks it when it's running inside Spyder.

Odd.

Closing because the Python console is going to be removed in Spyder 3.2.

Please see issue #4524 for our reasons to do this.
