Andreas,
You may have found a clue!

I had totally forgotten the existence of lib emacsreadline, even though the
file claims I wrote it (to link with Brian logan's package).
So I thought I would try it in the pop11 command, using V16:
% pop11 ":uses emacsreadline; emacsreadline()=>"
? will it work?
** [will it work ?]
That may perhaps give a clue as to what needs to be changed in Poplog
V16???
It also allows popracer to get a little further before it crashes in V16!
Amazing.
