Yes that does cause it to link correctly, but it then bombs out later when 
it tries to include the readline headers because it is also discarding the 
CPPFLAGS variable:

../scripts/mgnuc --grade reg.gc --no-mercury-stdlib-dir --no-ansi --no-check
-- -I../boehm_gc -I../boehm_gc/include -I../mps_gc/code -I../runtime 
-I../library -I../library/ -I../browser -g -DMR_NO_BACKWARDS_COMPAT
-DMERCURY_CONF_BOOTSTRAP_H -c mercury_trace_readline.c
-o mercury_trace_readline.o
mercury_trace_readline.c:27:35: readline/readline.h: No such file or directory
mercury_trace_readline.c:37:34: readline/history.h: No such file or directory


So I can probabley add an EXTRA_MCFLAGS with "-I/sw/include" in the 
Mmake.browser.params, but surely the correct thing is for the configure 
script to preserve the values of these variables, since these are used 
when testing for readline in the configure script, they should be used as 
build options throughout the entire build process.


Cheers,
