Problem building PostgreSQL 7.1 with readline-4.2

I think this will be fixed in 7.1.1.

[ Charset ISO-8859-1 unsupported, converting... ]

Apparently readline-4.2 gratuitously breaks backward compatibility by
undefining filename_completion_function (now called
rl_filename_completion_function).
This causes the compilation of src/bin/psql/tab-complete.c to fail.
Perhaps configure should be updated to detect this.

Yours,

Yup :-(.

We have updated our configure checks for 7.1.1.
