Comment (by josephsacco):

 Ryan,

 There is no installation of readline in /usr/local. The problem is
 "ultimately" caused by the installation of readline in /opt/local as can
 be seen from running:

 {{{

 }}}

 Note the presence of {{{ -I/opt/local/include }}}

 If that directory is removed from the header file search path, readline.c
 will compile.

 So where did that header file search path includes come from?

 The Makefile in ./pextlib1.0 contains {{{include
 ../../Mk/macports.autoconf.mk}}}, which includes:

 {{{
 UNIVERSAL_ARCHFLAGS     =  -arch i386 -arch ppc

 READLINE_CFLAGS         =
 MD5_CFLAGS              =
 SQLITE3_CFLAGS          =
 CURL_CFLAGS             = -I/opt/local/include
 }}}

 CURL_CFLAGS is picked up my the Makefile in ./pextlib1.0
 {{{
 # tracelib.o has an additional dependency
 tracelib.o: ../darwintracelib1.0/sandbox_actions.h

 CFLAGS+= ${CURL_CFLAGS} ${MD5_CFLAGS} ${READLINE_CFLAGS}
 LIBS+= ${CURL_LIBS} ${MD5_LIBS} ${READLINE_LIBS}
 }}}

 So the culprit appears to be an installation of the MacPorts version of
 curl.
