This is the problem: you have the EditLine library installed instead
of GNU readline, and somehow this is not compatible with PARI/GP.

To fix that, you can use:
./Configure --without-readline
Alternatively if GNU readline is available but in a different location, 
you can try the option --with-readline-include=... 

I would like to fix PARI Configure to reject EditLine, but I do not have
access to a Mac OS X machine and I am not sure what is the correct way 
to do it. Any help is very much welcome.

Cheers,
Bill.
