I've just tried zoid, which is a shell in perl.

cpan Bundle::Zoidberg
http://search.cpan.org/~pardus/Zoidberg-0.91/

Highly recommended if you do some perl programming.
Originally I tried to reactivate my scsh (scheme shell) and check its 
posix compatibility, but zoid looks much better, in terms of convenience 
and features.
clisp should also be able to do fine as login shell. This has at least 
readline, but is much less posix compatible than the scsh.
