Don't execute external commands (!) when running pdb in python consoles

Within the python console, after entering the pdb debugger, the execute statement (!) runs a command in the external command shell, and not as a python statement. This is not the case the the ipython shell.

How can I revert pdb back to the default behaviour? An example is included below:

Python 2.7.6 (default, Mar 22 2014, 22:59:56)
[GCC 4.8.2] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.

Imported NumPy 1.8.2, SciPy 0.14.0, Matplotlib 1.3.1

Type "scientific" for more details.

import pdb; r=1;
1/0
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "", line 1, in
ZeroDivisionError: division by zero
pdb.pm()
(1)()
(Pdb) !r

(Pdb) /bin/sh: 1: r: not found
