The patch already checks for add_history in libhistory, and if it does
not find it but the system has a suitable libreadline then the check
is repeated for libreadline.

AC_CHECK_LIB(readline, rl_bind_key,
             [LIBREADLINE=-lreadline
              AC_DEFINE(HAVE_LIBREADLINE, 1,
                   [Define to one if you have -lreadline])],
             [LIBREADLINE=], "$LIBTERMCAP")
AC_SUBST(LIBREADLINE)
AC_SUBST(LIBTERMCAP)

AC_CHECK_LIB(history, add_history,
             [LIBHISTORY=-lhistory
              AC_DEFINE(HAVE_LIBHISTORY, 1,
                   [Define to one if you have -lhistory])],
             [LIBHISTORY=])
AC_SUBST(LIBHISTORY)

# If libhistory does not provide add_history check if libreadline has it.
if test -z "$LIBHISTORY" && test -n "$LIBREADLINE"; then
  AC_CHECK_LIB(readline, add_history,
               [LIBHISTORY=-lreadline
                AC_DEFINE(HAVE_LIBHISTORY, 1,
                     [Define to one if you have -lhistory])],
               [LIBHISTORY=])
fi

Is this alright or you wanted something else?

Happy hacking,
Debarshi
