One *possible* work-around is to just try linking readline.so.4 to
readline.so.3.
In general that won't work, because the interface to readline.so.4
will be different from the interface to readline.so.3 (that's why they
gave it a new major number). But Hugs probably doesn't use that much
of the interface to readline (e.g. there's no support for command-line
completion, except the default file-name completion), so the difference
*might* not matter.
It's certainly worth a try ;-)
Cheers,
Fergus.
