2.1.44/45 solaris8 configure problem

[Eric Whiting]

Solaris 8 with gcc 2.95.2
I'm getting readline errors.

from config.log:

configure:16769: gcc -o conftest -g -O2  -g conftest.c -lreadline   -lcurses
-lm  >&5
ld: fatal: library -lreadline: not found
ld: fatal: File processing errors. No output written to conftest

I install the readline libraries and then I get this:

configure:16727: checking for rl_set_keyboard_input_timeout in -lreadline
configure:16764: gcc -o conftest -g -O2  -g conftest.c -lreadline  -lcurses -lm 
>&5

        (file /usr/ccs/lib/values-Xa.o and file /usr/lib/libreadline.so);
ld: fatal: File processing errors. No output written to conftest
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

Am I the only one who sees this?
