It is possible to build the D8 shell with readline support
  scons -Y.. console=readline d8

If on a 64-bit system add arch=x64 as well if on 32-bit readline libraries
are installed

  scons -Y.. console=readline arch=x64 d8

This requires that the readline developer packages are installed. For Ubuntu
use

  sudo apt-get install libreadline-dev

Hope you will find this useful.

Regards,
Søren
