configure and setup.py don't look for GNU readline the same way. If you have e.g. readline 4.2 installed in /usr and a different version in /usr/local, setup.py uses the version from /usr/local, but the feature testing in configure finds the 4.2 features in /usr/lib/libreadline* anyway. :-(

This issue is related to old versions: - readline 4.2: current is 5.2 - gcc 3.2.1: current is 4.3.3 - python 2.2.2: current is 2.6.1 - etc. If the problem is still valid today, please reopen this issue.
