More info: this bug only crops up if ipython is set as the default.

Currently, I have

  (setq py-shell-name "/Library/Frameworks/EPD64.framework/Versions/7.2/bin/ipython")

in my init.el

If I change this to

  (setq py-shell-name "/Library/Frameworks/EPD64.framework/Versions/7.2/bin/python")

(the same, but with python rather than ipython), py-separator-char now returns the correct value. I guess ipython insists on returning some extra text along with the output of whatever command you feed it.
