This should have been closed, although readline shouldn't crash either.

Brett: What version of OSX do you use? Readline works fine for me on OSX 
10.6 without GNU readline.

BTW. The crashlog indicates you are no longer using GNU readline, but 
use system readline instead (that is the libedit emulation layer). 

This is one thing we completely failed to look at: how to determine 
which one to use? We currently use the first readline we find, which 
will we the system one on OSX 10.5 or later. 

It may be better to either add a configure flag to explicitly select 
which one is preferential, or use the GNU version when it is found.
