Comment(by ryandesign@…):

 Shall we delete readline-4, then? It was added in r8080, over 6 years ago,
 "for ports requiring it"; if none do, it has outlived its purpose. It also
 claims "It provides [...] the
 dynamic libraries"; since it does not in fact provide the dynamic
 libraries, that's not useful either. We should either fix readline-4 or
 delete it.
