According to src/pmc/parrotio.pmc, the 'readline'() method for
parrot I/O objects seems like it ought to work even when
readline is not present (PARROT_HAS_READLINE, starting at
approx line 179).
However, it appears to segfault when readline isn't present, as
demonstrated by this test program:
$ cat readline.pir
.sub main :main
.local pmc stdin
stdin = getstdin
$I0 = stdin.'set_readline_interactive'(1)
$P0 = stdin.'readline'('> ')
say $P0
.end
$ ./parrot readline.pir
hello
Segmentation fault
The gdb backtrace shows:
