+Author: Sebastian Kemper <sebastian_ml@gmx.net>
+Date:   Sun Dec 9 21:19:24 2018 +0100
+
+    cmake: support new libedit interface
+    
+    libedit changed it's interface a while ago. MariaDB's cmake file doesn't
+    recognize the new interface, the compile test fails:
+    
+    /mariadb-10.2.19/CMakeFiles/CMakeTmp/src.cxx: In function 'int main(int, char**)':
+    /mariadb-10.2.19/CMakeFiles/CMakeTmp/src.cxx:6:47: error: invalid conversion from 'char*' to 'int' [-fpermissive]
+      int res= (*rl_completion_entry_function)(0,0);
+               ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~^~~~~
+    
+    Fix this by adding a detection for the new interface as well.
+    
+    In client/mysql.cc the ifdefs for the new readline interface are
+    extended to also check for the new libedit interface. They work the same
+    way.
+    
+    Run-tested on a MIPS machine.
+
