This works as expected; without readline you have the "interactive
mode" which works differently from the "interactive shell".  In
interactive mode you have to type a complete PHP script, and
afterwards to press CRTL+d (POSIX) or CTRL+z followed by ENTER
(Windows) to evaluate the script.  See user note 108006 for
further details.

The only thing that is suboptimal, is that the message reporting
whether the interactive shell or the interactive mode would be
enabled, is compiled statically what may lead to erroneous info.
You still can distinguish interactive mode/shell, because only for
the latter the prompt ("php >") is shown.

Confirmed, still broken in PHP 7.0.0RC5 on Linux.

This is still not working in PHP7-nightly Zend package and Ubuntu 14.04, but works ok with the standard Ubuntu-PHP.

May be we should print error & exit when readline/editline is not available.
