Summary: README build instructions for fpectl

Initial Comment:
configure.in supports the option '--with-fpectl'

However, the "Configuration options and variables"
section in the Python-2.3.3/README file mentions many
options, but does not mention --with-fpectl

I think the README should contain a few lines saying
what the default setting is and why you may want to
switch it on or off.

Added the question about fpectl to PEP 356, this will be
resolved before 2.5.

Waaa, the correct thing to is to remove the --with-fpectl from configure!  I've 
been meaning to post to python-dev for a while now proposing the ripping out 
of this code.  It's just not useful any more.  At any rate, I am actively 
opposed to 
advertising its existence more widely.
