The devel/gdb port currently has optional support for this but it breaks gdb if you have a binutils port installed as different parts of gdb are built against different bfd.h headers causing segfaults when gdb tries to load symbols for a binary. The simplest fix is to just remove the devel/libreadline support from the devel/gdb port if that is ok to do. -- John Baldwin
