libedit@20180525-3.1: tab completion and history does not work anymore in Python

Description
After upgrading to the latest libedit version the tab completion and going through the history (arrow-up/down) does not work anymore for me in the Python ports.
For example:
- trying to tab-complete
prigivesprint\(; there shouldn't be a\ - only the last command in the history can be reached
Re-installing the Python port from source after this upgrade does not solve the issue, reverting to the previous libedit does. Any ideas how to fix this?

Unfortunately, these seems to be different issues.
The tab-complete issue seems to have been introduced in a changes intended to facilitate filename completion.
I am still working on the history issue.
