Thanks for the feedback.

By the way, I have the agreement from the current maintainer of libedit
in Debian/Ubuntu to help him with the packaging.

I pushed the almost finished version here:
http://anonscm.debian.org/gitweb/?p=collab-maint/libedit.git;a=summary

The main thing remaining to check is the consistency of the API between
the old release that we had and this one. I will do that in a couple of
weeks (I am off).
