If the two binaries are identical otherwise (behave the same on user
input), and there's no compelling reason to have a libreadline linked
amiga-fdisk in the base system, why not use the scanf version as the one
and only amiga-fdisk? 

I guess the person to answer this is Frank Neumann (assuming he still
maintains amiga-fdisk).
