Yes it does, you just didn't show it to us. The config.log file will
end with several hundred lines showing configure's current variable
values and #defines, but those are rarely very useful. What you do want
to look at is the trace of the failed test ("checking test program"),
which will be right before those two lists.

Well, yeah, since your readline library is in a nonstandard place.
(Since this is a Linux system, I'll bet that the underlying problem is
that you didn't add /data/readline/lib to the ldconfig configuration.
Linux doesn't really like libraries in nonstandard places. But why are
you using a homebrew readline build at all? Your distro has certainly
got that available prepackaged.)
