You should probably send this email to the readline maintainer. The
readline in gdb 4.18 has, I believe, the most recent version of readline
available when it was released. The readline directory in CVS is version
4.0 with changes from Eli Zaretskii (I hope he also notified the readline
maintainer about these) to get things working on DJGPP.
