The output from the following would better enable me to help debug your
problem:

    $ ls -l /usr/lib/*read*

I would have preferred not to have to guess at the entire psql link line
but I presume that it is the following:

    gcc -O2 -Wall -Wmissing-prototypes -Wmissing-declarations \
    -L/usr/local/lib -g  command.o common.o help.o input.o stringutils.o \
    mainloop.o copy.o startup.o prompt.o variables.o large_obj.o print.o \
    describe.o tab-complete.o -L../../../src/interfaces/libpq -lpq -lz \
    -lcrypt -lreadline -ltermcap -lncurses -lcygipc -o psql

Hmm...seems unrelated to your readline link problem, but something that
you should investigate.

I believe that your problem is somehow you are linking with the static
readline library (i.e. /usr/lib/libreadline.a) and not the readline import
library (i.e., /usr/lib/libreadline.dll.a) needed to resolve the imports
from the Cygwin readline DLL.  However, I'm not sure how you managed to
accomplish this.
