Working around the problem:

1) Use the new 8.2devel backend Makefile:
Try one of the following:
o Use the new 8.2devel backend Makefile:
After the matter of readline's export list and the problems that were
occurring on AIX because of it being linked to the backend, a filter
to exclude unneeded libraries from being linked against the backend was
added. Get revision 1.112 of src/backend/Makefile from CVS and replace

There are a few libedit ports available online. Build and install the

that readline and libedit bring, but external readline wrappers exist
that add that functionality.
4) Use readline 5.0:
o Use readline 5.0
Readline 5.0 does not induce the problems, however it does export
memcpy and strncpy when built using the easy method of "-bexpall". Like
4.3, it is possible to do a build that does not export these symbols,
