BTW: the "right" way to modify these variables is by overriding them in your build.mk file, since config.mk is auto-generated every time you run configure. > That produced the > aforementioned missing readline/readline.h.

You can set ReadlineIncludePath in build.mk to the path containing readline/readline.h. > One more thing, is there a particular version of readline I should be > using? (I'm using 4.2) 4.2 should be fine.
