Tom was right, on the Mac libreadline is linked to libedit.
My "solution" was to comment out the line reporting the
error in the program "input.c"

I just upgraded from 8.0.4 to 8.1.0 this afternoon and the only

"bad" I have noticed is that whenever I quit psql I get a message:
could not save history to file "/Users/jerry/.psql_history": Invalid
argument
This is on MacOS X 10.4.3
The Postgres code in that area hasn't changed at all.
input.c has:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---

Use saveHistory so we get a nice error message on failure.
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
So, the error probably also occured in 8.0.4, but just wasn't reported
at all.
