Summary: Replace AtheOS w/ Syllable

Initial Comment:
AtheOS appears to have croaked several years ago.  While checking to see if it was still alive I came across Syllable (www.syllable.org).  The Syllable folks would still like to support Python.  One of the developers cooked up a patch against Python 2.5.1 which mostly replaces "atheos" with "syllable", though it appears to do a bit more than that.

I applied the patch against the trunk and fixed a couple rejects.  That patch is attached.  Note that at this point the Syllable patch is missing a thread_syllable.h file.  I have a request in to get ahold of that.  Until that arrives this is on hold.
