Don't do this on Mac OS X.  Apple ships something derived from libedit as
/usr/lib/libreadline.dylib and it doesn't come close to working with bash.

Since the linker obviously doesn't work for this, simply give up attempting
to use it.  Configure as normal, then edit Makefile to force use of the
static libraries. Replace the assignments to the following make variables
with these:

READLINE_LIB = $(READLINE_LIBRARY)

HISTORY_LIB = $(HISTORY_LIBRARY)

TILDE_LIB = $(TILDE_LIBRARY)

and see how far it gets you.
