[issue7452] Invalid mnemonic 'fnstcw'

Mark, I wasn't ranting at you or Ronald or anyone in particular.  It's no 
secret that Python's build system is complex and fragile in some areas.  
On the other hand, the build system is ambitious, covering a wide variety 
of platforms and variants, and is largely successful.  In particular, 
supporting multi-architecture builds across multiple OS levels for OS X 
is, IMO, a Good Thing to be doing. But there is a cost for all that.  It 
would be good to be able to scrape away some of the overall cruft that's 
accumulated over the many years.  Hmm, a GSOC project to implement SCons 
builds for the current platforms and to facilitate cross-platform builds?  
Anyway, I did indeed mean Include/pymacconfig.h.
