Thanks. That fixed the readline problem.  I ended up getting another
problem.  So I gave up trying to install to non-default directories and
just switched to root and installed that way.  That all worked.  

Thanks again, 
Josh

Its default is probably to install in /usr/local/include and
/usr/local/lib.  gcc is usually configured to search those directories
by default, but most vendor cc's aren't.  Try saying
--with-includes=/usr/local/include etc.
