No.

Of course not.  It would link against a port of BSD Editline, which
contains no GNU code.

[BTW, I just got a patch against Rich Saltz's Editline (a totally
different beast, designed to be a non-GNU cheap replacement for readline)
which makes it policy-compliant.  I'm probably going to use it instead,
as BSD Editline is nontrivial to port.]
