Avoiding the OpenSSL-vs-GPL linkage problem with readline.
I'm curious, how do you intend to solve a linking problem with OpenSSL-vs-GPL-readline, with another GPL product?
WolfSSL, will provide a commercial license for PostgreSQL?
Isn't LIbreSSL a better alternative?

Somewhere, I recall seeing an open-source OpenSSL compatibility wrapper for WolfSSL. Assuming that still exists, this patch seems entirely unnecessary.
