    Thanks for this post.

    However, whenever I run the readline make I get the following error: -

    gcc version 4.0.1 (Apple Inc. build 5465)
    i686-apple-darwin9-gcc-4.0.1: -compatibility_version only allowed with -dynamiclib
    make[1]: *** [libreadline.5.2.dylib] Error 1

    I've checked to make sure I have the latest gcc but everything appears fine. Any ideas?
