[Pythonmac-SIG] Framework build with readline - question

[bear]

looks like I found my answer.
 
It seems --with-readline is no longer required and that configure will 
locate readline if it's installed.

Since we are building our own framework build and don't want to depend 
on the target system having readline we need to pass to configure LIBS= 
and CPPFLAGS= so that the autoconf tests will find our local copy of 
readline.
