Thanks for your patch. I made readline support an optional variant in
r87561. It is only used in the 'fossil sqlite3'
command which starts an sqlite command-line shell on the repository
database. This is potential dangerous command which
could corrupt the repository if not used carefully. It is mainly for
debugging purposes, ommitting readline support for
the sqllite command-line shell should not affect normal users.
Additionally, if not linked against readline, it allows fossil to be
binary distributable, avoiding the openssl/gpl conflict.
