Hello Ewan,
The problem is that Configure decide that readline.h does not include rl_message
but /usr/local/include/readline/readline.h does.

So maybe you have two different copy of readline.h, maybe one of them being
from the broken editline in /usr/include.

When you run Configure it should say something like
  ...Found libreadline in /usr/lib64
  ...Found readline header in /usr/include/readline
  Using GNU readline, version 6.1
What does it say on your system ?

Cheers,
Bill.
