Its default is probably to install in /usr/local/include and
/usr/local/lib. gcc is usually configured to search those directories
by default, but most vendor cc's aren't. Try saying
--with-includes=/usr/local/include etc.

Thanks. That fixed the readline problem. I ended up getting another
problem. So I gave up trying to install to non-default directories and
just switched to root and installed that way. That all worked.

Thanks again,
Josh
