Trying to compile midish that needs libreadline.

I looked at the install file for readline.tgz and made two more symlinks 
(libreadline.so and libhistory.so) and now I get:

/usr/lib/libreadline.so:  undefined reference to `atexit@@GLIBC_2.0'

grep finds GLIBC_2.0 and atexit but not the combination in libreadline.so.
Do I need to get a later version of this library?

WHat does all this mean?
