   5 ** readline.c: error: `rl_pending_input' undeclared
   6
   7 This occurs if the Readline library detected by Guile's configure
   8 script is actually the BSD Editline project's supposedly
   9 Readline-compatible library.  The immediate fix is to uninstall
  10 Editline and install the real GNU Readline instead.  When you do this,
  11 please note that it probably won't work to keep Editline in /usr and
  12 install GNU Readline in /usr/local (or some similar arrangement),
  13 because the Editline library will then still be picked up at link and
  14 run time; it's best (subject to other constraints) to remove Editline
  15 completely.

  17 For the longer term, please also report this problem to the Editline
  18 project, to encourage them to fix it in the next release of their
  19 Readline compatibility library.
