Right.

With the patch I submitted, psql compiled fine with gcc on several
recent releases of OpenBSD. It's great to get command history working.

But yes, there appears to be a glitch in the OpenBSD build such that
history.h is not installed into /usr/include/readline - will go after
that.

Thanks.
