I assume you mean 7.2.3 ...

There is no --enable-readline in 7.2.3 (consult configure --help for the
definitive list of options recognized by any particular configure
script).

I suspect that you failed to follow through on rebuilding and
reinstalling Postgres after reconfiguring.  Try
    ./configure
    -- make *sure* configure output shows that it found readline,
    -- both library and header files
    make clean
    make all
    make install

            regards, tom lane
