Setup, walks into Guido's East End nightclub with a tactical nuclear
weapon on his shoulder.  Said nuclear weapon is promptly deployed
exactly where it will do the most good, right in the middle of
configure.in.

With this patch, the set of libraries autoconfigured in is extended to
include ndbm, gdbm, and crypt.  This essentially eliminates any need to
tweak Setup for a normal Linux build.

simpler if we use fgetpos and fsetpos, rather than trying to mess with
platform-specific TELL64 alternatives.

Of course, this hasn't been tested on a 64-bit platform, so I may have
to withdraw this -- but I'm hopeful, and Trent Mick supports this
patch!

for done[n] can be integers as well as strings, but the code
concatenates them with strings (fixed by adding a str()) and calls
string.strip() on them (fixed by rearranging the logic)

(Presumably this wasn't noticed previously because parse_makefile()
was only called on Modules/Makefile, which contains no integer-valued
variables.)

Also, fix a bug in acconfig.h -- somebody forgot to add an undef to
cover the LIBNDBM configure symbol, which was preventing autoheader
from working properly.

These basically just make available to the user what userhook()

This patch adds Python style index semantics to PyUnicode_Count()
