Guile-readline and readline aren't the same thing. Is this a linux system?
My guess is that you're missing readline-devel or readline-dev (whatever
your system uses). You should probably have /usr/include/readline/readline.h
in there somewhere. On my redhat system:

[hyclak@euclid ~]$ rpm -qf /usr/include/readline/readline.h 
readline-devel-4.3-13
