On linux, does libguilereadline.so itself depend on libreadline.so ?  On 
cygwin, at least, cygguilereadline*.dll does NOT explicit depend on 
cygreadline*.dll -- and I think it should:

Your experiment seems to show that simply dlopen'ing the guilereadine 
library results in the rl_* functions begin available -- even tho you 
don't explicitly dlopen the readline library.  That says to me that, at 
least on linux, ldd libguildreadline.so should show an explicit 
dependency on libreadline.so. (This sort of explicit dependence does NOT 
appear in the relevent cygwin DLLs)
