Urgh. Re-reading this, I could barely understand what the hell I was saying.

The problem: 64 bit compiles will dump core when readline is used if
they don't properly identify the presence of readline and use the system
headers.

The solution: fix autoconf to properly recognize when readline is
present by providing configure's readline test program with all
necessary prerequisites.

caveat: The fix for issue 1703270 (already checked in post-2.5.1) works
around this by hard coding the completion_matches prototype in
Modules/readline.c, but the autoconf fix seems better long term.
