psql shell problem

I have a machine with OpenBSD 2.6 and PSQL 6.5.3 that allows the use of
up-arrow to retreive/edit previous commands.

I recently built a new machine with OpenBSD 2.8 and PSQL 7.0.2 (from
package) and this feature is GONE!

Is there some way to get this functionality back (hopefully without
changing a compile-time option and compiling from source)?
