Ok, most of these appear to be unimportant warnings, until

: complete.c: In function `filename_completion_function':
: complete.c:1075: parse error before `*'
: complete.c:1120: `directory' undeclared (first use this function)
: complete.c:1120: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
: complete.c:1120: for each function it appears in.)

and the rest are all a result of DIR not being declared.  Please try
this patch:

        * readline/rldefs.h: Use new #defines for directory headers now
