Ned Deily added the comment:

That said, it *might* be OK to change the default behavior to just remove the 
"and on OS X" condition:  enable building readline with GNU readline if found 
on the search paths, possibly modified by CPPFLAGS and LDFLAGS, and, if not 
found, use editline if found on the search paths.  That's probably the desired 
behavior on FreeBSD systems where, AFAIK, GNU readline isn't shipped by default 
but BSD editline is.
