I cannot find rl_meta_chars in the readline distributed with
bash-1.12, the readline in the current version of bash, or the
`standalone' readline.  It's not in the version of readline
distributed with gdb either. 

As far as I can tell, it's never been in a readline from the FSF.  It
does appear in Rich's version of editline; the one available for FTP
from ftp.white.toronto.edu has it, at least.
