This sounds like it now fails to set the necessary LD_PRELOAD for
libreadline and falls back to the rather limited libedit. The most
likely change was

postgresql-common (122) unstable; urgency=low
[...]
  * pg_wrapper: Find libreadline in multiarch directory, too.
    (Closes: #640520)

  http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~pitti/postgresql/common/revision/1098

This change worked for me in current sid (where libreadline6 is
multiarch-ified), and Ubuntu (where it is not yet), as well as in my
sarge chroot.

Seems something is different for you, can you please give me the
output of
 
   ls -l /lib/libreadline.so* /lib/*/libreadline.so*
   dpkg -l 'libreadline*'

Thanks!

Martin
