I just deleted my postgres tree, and then unpacked it again, and ran
configure again. libreadline.a and libhistory.a are in
/usr/local/lib/. readline.h and history.h are in
/usr/local/include/readline/.
I then ran ./configure.
When I look at config.h, I can see that it failed to detect
/usr/local/include/readline/history.h. Also, I see that it did define
HAVE_HISTORY_IN_READLINE 1 which is incorrect. I would have to make
the change by hand to the file.
I think it may be a bug.
