Getting "DeadReferenceError: Calling Stale Broker" after ipcontroller restart about ipython HOT 4 CLOSED

I have confirmed this. It also occurs for the MultiEngineClient when the controller stop and is restarted underneath a live client. The client should have reconnect logic that is triggered on a DeadReferenceError.

from ipython.

Hey Brian,

Totally forgot about this bug. Since I have had a look at this before,
feel free to assign it to me.

Not Sure that is a bug or an expected behavior.

I am starting the ipcontoller such that it reuses the ipcontroller-tc.furl between restarts.
After the restart, if I invoke a DeadReferenceError with the following traceback:
