Edwin Groothuis 98d41cddb3 New Port: devel/readline-4.3
libreadline is out of date in base (both -STABLE and 5.x)
	HEAD is the only version thats up to date. This port is only
	temp (to make quftp work) until libreadline is updated.

Actually I'm hoping that the submitter will keep maintaining this
PR so that people will have the choice to update their readline
libs. Maybe it could support LIBREADLINE_OVERWRITE_BASE ?

The GNU Readline library provides a set of functions for use by
applications that allow users to edit command lines as they are
typed in. Both Emacs and vi editing modes are available. The
Readline library includes additional functions to maintain a list
of previously-entered command lines, to recall and perhaps reedit
those lines, and perform csh-like history expansion on previous commands.
