You are not allowed to link readline aganst non GPL code to my knowledge.
No, it is enough that it is GPL compatible which the Wine license is.
Whether we should is another matter though. Just linking it to the debugger is rather harmless IMHO though.

License issues apart, I did following silly things: - revive an old patch untested (it doesn't work) - didn't look at the available code ( it seems to have all the needed framework).
So I'll first try to make the available code do the things I want ( react on the arrow keys without spitting out something like "^[[A")
