I've just checked the buildfarm run for the PR up to 1ad2fcc, it seems to be "ok" on all builds apart from `win-64` which is failing on: * `numba.tests.test_pycc.TestDistutilsSupport.test_setup_py_setuptools_nested` *...

Thanks for the report, I can reproduce under `ipython` only. I think 77b9ffcc introduced this, seems like the logic to fix it would be to just check if the list...
