I have the latest readline library (6.1) installed on my MacOSX (from 
MacPorts):

lrwxr-xr-x  1 root  admin      21 Jan 17 02:09 
/opt/local/lib/libreadline.5.0.dylib -> libreadline.6.1.dylib
lrwxr-xr-x  1 root  admin      21 Jan 17 02:09 
/opt/local/lib/libreadline.5.1.dylib -> libreadline.6.1.dylib
lrwxr-xr-x  1 root  admin      21 Jan 17 02:09 
/opt/local/lib/libreadline.5.2.dylib -> libreadline.6.1.dylib
-rwxr-xr-x  2 root  admin  248168 Jan 17 02:09 
/opt/local/lib/libreadline.6.1.dylib
lrwxr-xr-x  1 root  admin      21 Jan 17 02:09 
/opt/local/lib/libreadline.6.dylib -> libreadline.6.1.dylib
-rw-r--r--  2 root  admin  396552 Jan 17 02:09 /opt/local/lib/libreadline.a
lrwxr-xr-x  1 root  admin      21 Jan 17 02:09 
/opt/local/lib/libreadline.dylib -> libreadline.6.1.dylib

But i think configure have tried to use the one in the standard path 
(/usr/lib):

lrwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  15 Dec 26 14:03 /usr/lib/libreadline.dylib -> 
libedit.2.dylib

Perhaps i can use an option of configure or environnement variable to 
"force" the linker to use the version in /opt/local/lib instead of 
/usr/lib ?
