For some reason, the libreadline loader reference has an absolute path instead of relative (or has a modified runtime path). Searching a bit took me to this question: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4513799/how-to-set-the-runtime-path-rpath-of-an-executable-with-gcc-under-mac-osx Which could be related. Maybe a verbose compilation (showing all compiler and linker flags) could reveal a hint. But I may also be wrong, as I'm extrapolating from what I know about ELF binaries, so in Mach'O may not apply.
