I have installed a lodgeit paste bin in my local machine at the address http://localhost/lodgeit/ ( I needed to modify the source a little to make it work there). bpython wasn't able to post to it, giving me an error saying basically that localhost/xmlrpc doesn't work.

I traced the error back to the source of bpython, and it turns out that the use of urljoin is the culprit. In bpython/cli.py, the use of urljoin('http://localhost/lodgeit','/xmlrpc/') returns 'http://localhost/xmlrpc/' which doesn't work.

It now works for me after I did two changes:

1. In the config file, the parameter pastebin_url must end now with a trailing slash (opposite to the documentation).
2. I applied the attached patch to bpython/cli.py
