Mark, thanks for reviewing the patch. In the new patch, I added a skip
for OS X.

Buildbot testing looks good. In particular, one FreeBSD bot passes
test_curses now (the other one is hanging in multiprocessing).

For most bots nothing changes. The solaris bot has the same unrelated
failures as before. Ubuntu sparc previously did the same weird linking
(readline already linked with ncurses, but using -lncursesw) and now
uses ncurses throughout. Tests pass. Debian sparc did the same, tests
give the same failures as before ("getmouse returned ERR", almost certainly
unrelated.)


Roumen, I do not see a line in configure.in that tests for the
libraries that readline is linked against.
