Comment (by vivainio):

 It seems that instantiation of ipshellembed inside %run screws up IPython
 pretty badly in general. If you print self.shell here (in Magic.py / run):

 {{{
                    # update IPython interactive namespace
                     del prog_ns['__name__']
                     print "prog_ns",prog_ns
                     print self.shell
                     self.shell.user_ns.update(prog_ns)
 }}}

 You'll see that InteractiveShell instance is different on every run if you
 instantiate ipshellembed. Also, prog_ns is polluted by lots of IPython
 crap.
