+fix readline extension compilation against readline 6.3
+
+readline 6.3 removed some typedefs that had been deprecated for some time, but
+Python 2.7.6 still uses them and therefore fails to build the readline
+extension when it is enabled. This issue has been addressed in the Python bug
+tracker here: http://bugs.python.org/issue20374. The patch below is based on
+the readline_func_cast.patch patch uploaded there. Also see
+http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-readline/2014-03/msg00003.html for more
+information.
+
+This patch should be removed with the next Python 2.7 release, which should
+include the fix.
