I'm trying to compile some Haskell code using Debian package ghc5, and it fails to find -lreadline at link time. Looks like a config problem because hte library is sitting there in /lib.
I'm cc-ing the GHC bug list even though this looks to me like a Debian problem. Hope this info is what you need.
