Summary: Linux/nice() changes break build

Initial Comment:
(Perhaps these changes only broke the build for some
versions of Linux; appearantly they helped on other
versions.)

On Mandrake Linux 7.2 (kernel 2.2.17), the posix_nice()
function fails to compile with gcc:

gcc -g -O3 -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes
-Dss_family=__ss_family -Dss_len=__ss_len -I.
-I../Include -DHAVE_CONFIG_H   -c
../Modules/posixmodule.c -o Modules/posixmodule.o
../Modules/posixmodule.c: In function `posix_nice':
../Modules/posixmodule.c:1139: warning: implicit
declaration of function `getpriority'
../Modules/posixmodule.c:1139: `PRIO_PROCESS'
undeclared (first use in this function)
../Modules/posixmodule.c:1139: (Each undeclared
identifier is reported only
once../Modules/posixmodule.c:1139: for each function it
appears in.)
make: *** [Modules/posixmodule.o] Error 1

Fixed in the CVS tree now. Geez, you impatient people just
have no respect for dinner, do you ? Not to mention
crash-and-burn-time at work ;-)

Ploing!  I just reported this same problem to python-dev. 
Attached is a patch that fixes it for me on my RH6.1-ish
Linux box.
