stead of standard Py_Initialize(), which it calls).

    - Quieted gcc -Wall by removing unused local variables.

    - Added some choice parentheses around assignments in conditional
      tests.

    - Removed an unused (and seemingly unreachable) err label in
      load_short_binstring().

    - in Unpickler_load(), removed \. in string format.

    - init_stuff() was declared to return an int, but had these
      problems:

	- it was returning NULL instead of 0 or 1 in some cases
	- it was falling of the end of the routine without returning
	  anything
	- the call of init_stuff() in initcPickle() was never checking
	  the return value anyway.

      I changed all this by returning 1 in the case of errors, 0 when
      no error occurred.  Then in initcPickle(), if init_stuff()
      returns non-zero, I call Py_FatalError().

Don't assume gethostbyaddr()'s primary hostname is the same as
gethostname(), or even that gethostname() can be found in the list of
hosts returned by gethostbyaddr().  We do test for at least one FQDN
in gethostbyaddr().

(as well as unbuffered stdout/stderr).
