Thanks for the bug report.  I picked a Slackware64 14.1 Docker image,
installed C5 into it and managed reproducing your issue.  After messing
around a lot with the system I eventually discovered the reason for this
error message, on Slackware it's expected that interactive programs link
against ncurses (which their readline package doesn't, unlike mine).

I've released a new version of the package now that explicitly links against
ncurses.  In case you don't want to wait for a day or so for it to
appear in the coop, execute the following:

    git clone https://github.com/wasamasa/breadline
    cd breadline
    chicken-install
