Hmm, that doesn't seem to have stopped make looking for readline:

[nimbus2:~/Desktop/project/hat-2.02] tatd100% make
cd src/hattools;      make HC=ghc install
hmake -hc=ghc -fglasgow-exts -package lang -package util  
-DUSE_READLINE=0 SrcRefViewer \
          
-d/Users/tatd100/Desktop/project/hat-2.02/targets/powerpc-Darwin6/obj/ 
hattools
cd  
/Users/tatd100/Desktop/project/hat-2.02/targets/powerpc-Darwin6/obj/ 
hattools && ghc  -fglasgow-exts -package lang -package util     -o  
SrcRefViewer HighlightStyle.o Run.o SrcRefViewer.o
ld: can't locate file for: -lreadline
make[1]: ***

make: *** [targets/powerpc-Darwin6/hat-tools-ghc] Error 2
