Try the readline-4.2a-1 package (along with libreadline5) which were
just announced. With that package, your bug.c program returns the
correct results...
Also, you should no longer need to specify -DREADLINE_STATIC when
compiling. Just compile without that flag, and then link (dynamically,
or statically using -static)
Note that this still won't fix the problem with static initializers and
dynamic linking. You must either link statically or initialize your
variable inside main().
