Have you looked at Mac/BuildScript/build-installer.py in Python's  
source distribution? That's how the official binaries for OSX get  
build, includeing readline support.

You probably have to add the directory containing readline to the  
CFLAGS and LDFLAGS when running Python's configure, AFAIK setup.py  
doesn't automaticly look for readline in $prefix/{lib,include}.
