I'll have to look at this.  The bash-4.3 behavior was changed to solve
this problem with running the debugger in an interactive shell:

http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-bash/2012-08/msg00028.html

That problem still exists with the version of bashdb installed by default
on my Fedora 20 system.

It looks like testing for the presence of -i might solve it, but I will
have to see.
