Description:
------------
* Using OS X Lion 10.7.2 or Ubuntu 11.04 (Natty), and basic "./configure".

If you run php -a, you never reach the prompt, and nothing entered will work. All 
you can do is ^C to kill it.

Setting cli.prompt does not help.

Test script:
---------------
$ php -a

Expected result:
----------------
$ php -a
Interactive mode enabled

php > 

Actual result:
--------------
$ php -a
Interactive mode enabled

(wait. wait. wait.)

^C

IMHO it's not a bug, to have interactive shell you have to configure with readline support, not just clean './configure'
 [2012-01-15 01:58 UTC] dragoonis@php.net 
@rk,

If there's support required for another library then it shouldn't let you enter 
interactive mode, and back out, giving you a useful error message to tell you 
there are missing dependencies..

@dragoonis 

readline is only required to make this mode truly interactive (with command history, function completion etc), but it also works without it. You can type/paste your code and it will be executed as soon as EOF (^D) is reached, so it's rather documentation problem.

Can we make the output here 
(http://lxr.php.net/opengrok/xref/PHP_5_4/sapi/cli/php_cli.c#906) be a little 
more descriptive?

i.e.:

printf("Interactive mode enabled\n");
printf("No readline/libedit support, use ^D to execute and quit.\n\n");

Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not
a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at
http://www.php.net/manual/ and the instructions on how to report
a bug at http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php

The classic interactive mode is different from the shell mode, just re-using the flag.
