bug#13342: Errors trying to build Guile 2.0.7

[Peter Teeson]

My environment is Mac Pro 4,1 Intel, MacOS 10.7.5 Lion

All required Guile libs are newly installed in /usr/local/

I get the following 2 errors, (A & B below) trying to build Guile.

(A) I solved this one by installing GNU readline-6.2.

Prior to that it must have used Apple's deadline which didn't have the rl_get_keymap_name

function.

You might wish to make a test for that function in configure and maybe make GNU readline a required lib?

(B) I ran Make Check after Make as I always do and this error is reported
