Building python on HPUX-10.2

[Robert Roy]

I have built python successfully on several HPUX 10.2 boxes using GCC.

If you are using the basic cc compiler, you might have problems. If
you have the full development version, I don't know. On one machine I
had to install GCC, (hmmm that might have been because of one of the
libraries I was linking now that I think if it.) GNU make is also a
good idea...

Another gotcha is that once compiled, it might fail the fcntl tests.
