--- Comment #19 from Andriy Gapon <avg at FreeBSD.org> ---
I've recently encountered the same problem with python27 on a completely clean
system where, for reasons which I won't go into, some software is built and
installed from ports.  The procedure is to iterate over a list of ports to make
&& make install each.  There was not anything installed before those ports. 
The readline port was not on the list originally and it was not installed as a
dependency of any other port when the python port build was run.

I suspect that python might have a build time dependency on readline.
I see USES= ... readline:port ...
I am not sure what "port" suffix means.

Finally, I must add that some ports on the list have non-default options.
