Interesting. Either your libedit installation was broken (not entirely
unlikely on Gentoo, which is way too bleeding-edge for my tastes ;-))
or there is some bit-rot in our support for libedit. The latter seems
possible since AFAIK the vast majority of PG users use readline.
Can any libedit users confirm it still works with PG current??
