Anybody realized that this Debian bug (and several others) got closed in the mean time (Sunday)? According to the changelog [1], Martin Pitt (which I'm CC'ing here, as he might not be aware of this thread, yet) worked around this issue by pre-loading readline via LD_PRELOAD for psql. Personally, I'm a bit suspicious about that solution (technically as well as from a licensing perspective), but it's probably the simplest way to let only psql link against readline.
