the i386 linux ghc bindist still uses readline 4

And I don't want to pollute my Ubuntu system with "compatibility RPMs";
in fact I intend to install the bindist as my local user so I don't
pollute it with extra GHCs either, except I can't. Could there be a
bindist with modern readline, or perhaps is it possible to statically
link with readline?
The i386 machine I use here for building the bindists is running a rather
old version of RedHat. I do intend to upgrade it at some point, but it's
entirely possible for someone else to build a bindist too.
Cheers,
Simon
