Summary: Installation instructions are wrong

Initial Comment:
The README file's installation instructions in Python 
2.2 are wrong. The Modules/Setup file has changed 
considerably in purpose between Python 2.0 and Python 
2.2, but the instructions are identical. There needs 
to be some wording to the effect that Modules/Setup is 
only for configuring where to look for libraries, etc, 
and actually everything that's commented out in 
Modules/Setup will be included anyway by some magic 
means.

I've edited the instructions. Hopefully the CVS version is
to your liking.
