New description:

 Python can have readline style support.  THere are number of ways to
 accomplish this, but the most
 functional and easiest to use appears to be the readline support that
 comes with Python.  This also
 requires the GNU readline library to be available.  I've modified my
 Portfile for this.  I think the fix for
 adding this variant should be something like this.  YMMV, but it's working
 for me! (p.s. I already had
 readline installed, so the depend_lib-append is somewhat questionable, but
 the configure portion
 certainly works)
