When running:
./configure --with-perl --with-includes=/usr/local/include
--with-libs=/usr/local/lib
the output is this ... same as before.
......................................
checking whether string.h and strings.h may both be included... (cached) yes
checking for readline/readline.h... (cached) yes
checking for readline/history.h... (cached) no
checking for history.h... (cached) no
......................................
The Readline is version 4.1 and this is the content of my readline directory:
-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel   3848 Apr 16 13:32 chardefs.h
-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel   9294 Apr 16 13:32 history.h
-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel   3528 Apr 16 13:32 keymaps.h
-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel  24657 Apr 16 13:32 readline.h
-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel   2076 Apr 16 13:32 rlconf.h
-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel   1363 Apr 16 13:32 rlstdc.h
-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel   3180 Apr 16 13:32 tilde.h
wvgi2# pwd
/usr/local/include/readline
and history.h is there.
