Hi there
It seems Clisp 2.49 fails to build with readline 7.0 the extern variable
rl_readline_state from readline changed from int to unsigned long. This
breaks compilation of clisp-2.49 with readline enabled (as it is by
default) because the expected size/alignment does not match the actual one
(at least on NetBSD-7.99.38/amd64).
The simplest fix I could find:

I just rebuilt clisp on a system with readline 7 without any problems.
Can you post the actual output of the build showing the error?
I do confirm that readline.h now has:
extern unsigned long rl_readline_state;
so I suppose there could be a runtime issue, but I can't find a build problem.
