I am aware of that, sure. The problem is that somebody said on -devel,
that there are differences between libreadline version 2 and 4 that
can't be dealt with by recompiling. So every time we just recompile
a package against libreadline4 we risk breaking that package.
And this is not the right time for such experiments...
