I have tested it, and the patch works, no more segfaults so far.
I attach the patch file for buildroot, Gustavo, can you tell me if I did
it in a correct way? Did you already include this one in buildroot too?
I could not get the original patch working with the buildroot system so
I generated my own diff which works for buildroot (that is
readline-0001-63-002.patch). I saw there are more patches for readline
6.3 available.
