Summary: Detect incomplete readline implementation
Initial Comment:
Here's a patch for setup.py to detect BSD-ish readlines that
don't have the full suite of readline/history functions needed
by Python (and provided by GNU readline).

I'm rejecting this patch as out-of-date. r42562 added a similar change,
although restricted to OSX.
If anybody wants to work on it again, I recommend to add checks for
exported functions to configure, then query them in setup.py (doing it in
distutils is probably impractical, as you would want to cache the result,
just as configure output is cached in config.status).

You mentioned on python-dev and in the diff that autoconf
could detect this better. Would adding something to
configure and having distutils.sysconfig.get_config_var()
see if it is set be a better solution?
