Modify the recently-added probe for -Wl,--as-needed some more, because RHEL-4

vintage Linux is even more broken than we realized: a link to libreadline
will succeed, and fail only at runtime.  It seems that an AC_TRY_RUN test
is the only reliable way to check whether this is really safe.  Per report
from Tatsuo.
