Hello,

Just wanted to check here before filing a ticket. A search here and
in TRAC didn't find anything.

The REPL for recent 2.8 nightly builds is broken (for me) on Mac OS X
(Snow Leopard, Java 1.6.0_15). The ones I've checked are r19316 (28
Oct) and r19352 (30 Oct). Compiling and running programs works fine.
When the REPL is run, however, it brings up the prompt, but then hangs
on any input. Backspace is also broken.

Is this known, or should I file a ticket?

Emphasis on "for you", so please don't file a ticket unless you can
describe something reproducible.
