To complete Elias's thought: If you do have readline in /usr/local,  
that's a problem for MacPorts. Get rid of that version of readline,  
if you're not using it for anything. If you are using it, then you'll  
need to temporarily move it out of the way, do your thing with  
MacPorts, then move your readline back in place. But note that you  
may very well need to do this each time you want to use any part of  
MacPorts, which will get tedious.
