   Personally, I think it'd be better to just do

       ;; Add a silly header
       (insert ielm-header)
        ...)

   and *not* insert the header when restarting the process, just when the
   *ielm* buffer is created the first time around.

   Opinions?

The header in:

ELISP>   C-c C-c
Process ielm interrupt
*** Welcome to IELM ***  Type (describe-mode) for help.
ELISP>

gives an indication that the process was restarted.  (Maybe it can be
argued that the new prompt already does that.)  _Maybe_:

ELISP>   C-c C-c
Process ielm interrupt
Process ielm restarted
ELISP>
 
might be better, but probably the repeated header is good enough.

Sincerely,

Luc.
