Thanks for the -Q reminder. I get the same output if I run with emacs -Q
(although I do have to add :results output to each block. I had that set as
a default in my init files).
I had the problem described in the footnote you listed, and that is why I
am using python-mode 5.2, which doesn't have that issue.
