I keep debugging what's going on there. I have found an interesting,
platform-dependent behavior in Emacs that may or may not be related to
this problem.
In the meantime, it may make sense to either change the autoconf scripts
to force a GNU readline dependency on systems that have a BSD editline
or at least introduce a GNU readline dependency to the Inetutils
distributed by Homebrew for macOS.
I have also submitted a documentation patch against Ange-FTP that
suggests a user configures '-e' for FTP clients that use editline.
