-shared does the following things:
- invoke the linker with -G -dy -z text (the latter only if
  -mimpure-text was not given)
- drop crt1.o from the list of objects being linked
- drop -lc from the list of libraries being linked
OTOH, -G is just passed through to the linker.

The things that -shared does are necessary: crt1.o defines _start, and
requires main, so it should not be present in a shared library.
Likewise, -z text should be used to detect position-dependent code at
compile time.

Compile shared object files using -fPIC option when using GCC on Solaris (SF
patch #103865).  Closes bug #132783.  Move config.c generated by makesetup to
the Modules directory.

- Cygwin doesn't want CCSHARED flag when bulding the interpreter DLL.

and an option is more friendly then manually setting a variable.

Fixed typo in message

- Add CFLAGSFORSHARED variable.  configure sets this to CCSHARED if LDLIBRARY
  is a shared library.
- Remove -fPIC from OPT, it has no business there.
- Change CCSHARED option for Linux to -fPIC.  It should probably be
  -fPIC on a few other platforms as well.
- Don't create silly boot Makefile, create Setup files and run makesetup
  instead.

- change EXE to EXTEXT, there is an autoconf macro for it
- use PROG_INSTALL macro rather than always using install-sh
- add option to disable signal module (simplifies the makefile)
- create subdirs for object files (when building out of src dir)
- don't generate subdir makefiles
- generate "boot" makefile

by weird and (hopefully) unnecessary SET_CXX and SET_DLLLIBRARY macros
that occurr at the start of Makefile.in files.

- Also removed the already-commented-out SET_CCC macro cruft.

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.

These are done as shared libraries by default, and so is bsddb -- that

This closes bug #119851.

  - when compiling with GCC on Solaris, use "$(CC) -shared" instead
    of "$(CC) -G" to generate .so files
  - when compiling with GCC on any platform, add "-fPIC" to OPT
    (without this, "$(CC) -shared" dies horribly)

regardless of whether the system getopt() does what we want. This avoids the
hassle with prototypes and externs, and the check to see if the system
getopt() does what we want. Prefix optind, optarg and opterr with _PyOS_ to
avoid name clashes. Add new include file to define the right symbols. Fix
Demo/pyserv/pyserv.c to include getopt.h itself, instead of relying on
Python to provide it.

-Wstrict-prototypes options.  This will make it a lot easier to keep
warnings under control in the first place in the future.

There is one known warning at this time, caught by the -Wstrict-prototypes
option.  In Modules/main.c, the declaration of getopt() without parameters
gets a complaint (rightly) that it is not a proper prototype.  The lack of
a complete prototype information should be corrected when the right
portability conditions have been identified.
