It's the same code: both come from NetBSD's repository. 

I'm probably dumb.. but I don't undertand why we are not installing the
readline compatibility header: it goes in it's own directory so it doesn't
interfere with GNU readline. Furthermore I don't understand why we are not
using the exact same version as NetBSD (with readline compatibility) in the
base system.

cheers,

   Pedro.
