However, etch does not even have libreadline.so.4, and only has
libreadline.so if the libreadline5-dev package is installed.
Furthermore, an application I'm trying to compile (MIT Discuss)
segfaults in ss_listen when libss doesn't find libreadline and falls
back to libedit.

This was fixed in 1.39+1.40-WIP-2007.04.07+dfsg-1.
Feisty is currently using 1.39+1.40-WIP-2006.11.14+dfsg-2ubuntu1, and
Gutsy is at 1.40.2.
BTW, I'm not sure why you rated this as an "important" bug, when it's
not applicable to modern distro releases ---after all, it's fixed in
Debian Obsolete.... err, I mean Debian Stable as well as Ubuntu
Feisty. In addition there is a simple workaround, which is to use the
SS_READLINE_PATH environment variable.

I can't replicate this; it works just fine for me when I force debugfs
to use libedit.
