The whole reason why the patch was so tricky was giving up on using the
synchronous readline () call.  Replacing it with the other callbacked

too complex.

Going to provide a libreadline patch #2 but unfortunately only later.

Voting for its temporary removal (and it is going to be done for Red Hat GDB).
