Yes, this is a simpler way to workaround the problem.
I have just noticed the presence of a debian dir in xfsprogs package
and in debian/rules you can read this:
options = export DEBUG=-DNDEBUG DISTRIBUTION=debian \
INSTALL_USER=root INSTALL_GROUP=root \
LOCAL_CONFIGURE_OPTIONS=--enable-readline=yes ;
diopts = $(options) \
export OPTIMIZER=-Os LOCAL_CONFIGURE_OPTIONS="--enable-gettext=no" ;
It seems that they used this method also to pass the switch --enable-readline
to configure and to disable gettext.
According with ./configure --help the available options are:
--enable-shared=yes/no Enable use of shared libraries default=yes
--enable-gettext=yes/no Enable alternate language support default=yes
--enable-readline=yes/no Enable readline command editing default=no
--enable-editline=yes/no Enable editline command editing default=no
--enable-termcap=yes/no Enable terminal capabilities library default=no
So, for example to pass the switch for enable readline you can do this:
make DEBUG=-DNDEBUG INSTALL_USER=root INSTALL_GROUP=root \
LOCAL_CONFIGURE_OPTIONS="--enable-readline=yes"

I can try, but please check that is done correctly.
(Including my rusty english :-) )
