Summary: garbage collector still documented as optional

Initial Comment:
Section 3.2 of the library reference, first paragraph, says
"The gc module is only available if the interpreter was
built with the optional cyclic garbage detector"

However according to Misc/NEWS, "Compiling out the
cyclic garbage collector is no longer an option" as of
Python 2.3 alpha 1.
