    I've posted a little problem here as a comment. Here is the problem:

    I try to compile MySQL 5.1.42 using the configuration options provided for Intel. The configuration works fine but at the make stage, it gives the following error:

    xmalloc.h:29:31: error: readline/rlstdc.h: No such file or directory

    My system: MAC OS X 10.5.8 XCode 3.1 1.83GHz Intel Core 2 Duo.

    Any suggestions?
    Thanks.

    I'm sorry but I've never seen this error before on any of the systems I installed? Recenlty tested 5.1.44 without any problem. Are you sure you've got the correct sourcefile?

    Well I have to use 5.1.42 version because of the compatibility reasons.

    I had downloaded it at MySQL.com archives as .tar.gz file and upon your remark I have re-downloaded it, this time as .zip file and after that, it compiled perfectly at the make stage.

    Clearly enough, it was a corrupted source file as you have guessed.

    Thanks!
