I haven't tried, but I suspect that doing a
    darcs get --partial http://darcs.haskell.org/packages/readline/
and then
* removing the build-depend on process in readline.cabal
* running autoreconf
* building with Cabal as described in
    http://www.haskell.org/haskellwiki/How_to_install_a_Cabal_package
will work.


Thanks
Ian
