If you think you're in danger don't link to it. You don't have to at
all. You can build without readline entirely (it's only needed for psql)
or you can link to libedit instead.
So it's a postgresql option, not a requirement.
But they'll never worry anyway, it would be a complete waste of time and
money to pursue you over it.
