I tried these instructions, first by using my existing (darwinports)
readline in /opt/local, and when that failed by first installing
readline in /usr/local per the instructions. Neither fixed the
problem. I don't know why but perhaps I failed to remove the traces of
my initial install completely. In the end I gave up and installed Greg
Heartsfield's binary package which remedied my problems (thanks
Greg!).

Thanks anyway Simon,
