[Bug-readline] libreadline.so missing symbols

When compiling readline-5.2 on GNU/Linux (x86 and x86_64), libreadline.so ends up missing symbols which are provided by libtermcap. The issue is resolved (in a hacky way) by adding -ltermcap to the LDFLAGS. The missing symbols can cause other programs to not compile (try to compile parted-1.8.3 --with-readline, for example), and can cause other weird runtime errors when using bash (the cursor jumps around unpredictably).
