Under CentOS 5.2 I'm having difficulty getting it to compile. It throws
up errors such as 'undefined reference to `using_history''.

The config.log file shows:

==============================================================
configure:21093: checking for readline in -lreadline
configure:21128: gcc -o conftest -g -O2 -D_REENTRANT
-D_POSIX_PTHREAD_SEMANTICS   conftest.c -lreadline -lnsl -lresolv
-lpthread >&5
/usr/lib/gcc/i386-redhat-linux/4.1.2/../../../libreadline.so: undefined

==============================================================

It looks like the 'configure' test needs to include '-lcurses' as well
as '-lreadline' when checking for readline. Then if the test passes set
the libraries to include '-lreadline -lhistory -lcurses'. I did that and
then both configure and make worked okay.
