Trouble with readline in cpan, perl debug on Mac OS X boyd 09-09-2004

I have reinstalled cpan, and the readline libraries, but even though
cpan says readline is enabled, it doesn't work right. Also the perl
debugger has a similar problem. Could it be that the Perl that is
installed from the Apple site is not readline enabled? Below is the
perl -V output. Thanks for any help you can give me.
