Comment (by emassop):

 I dug into the revision history to see what various chunks of shobj-
 conf.patch were for.

 The FreeBSD related chunks seem to be remnants from FreeBSD's transition
 from a.out to ELF. Upstream has code for that now, so I discarded those
 chunks.

 For OS/X, I traced the changes back to a patch on macports. There the
 patch has been updated and I have included the new version now. I think
 this is the sane thing to do for OS/X. Anyway, that patch has been
 included in macports for 4 months now, and there are no open bugs at
 
https://trac.macports.org/query?status=assigned&status=new&status=reopened&component=ports&summary=~readline&order=priority
 so that should be fine.
