need to be reinitialized -- fixed.

Ensure 'make_archive()' method returns archive filename.

  * added "--bdist-base" option to parameterize where we build
    the RPM (comes from "bdist" by default: "build/bdist.<plat>")
  * simplified/cleaned up some code in 'run()' in the process of
    removing (most) hard-coded directory names
  * if "--spec-only", drop spec file in "dist" rather than "redhat"
    (directory name still hard-coded, though)
  * use 'reinitialize_command()' to fetch the "sdist" object to
    tweak before running "sdist" command
  * use 'self.copy_file()' method rather than 'copy_file()' function
  * cosmetic tweaks to comments, error messages

  * help strings start with lowercase
  * added affirmative version of '--no-clean' and '--no-rpm-opt-flags',
    which are the default (thus the attributes that correspond to
    the options are now 'clean' and 'use_rpm_opt_flags')

detail that confuses too many people.  Based on discussion in python-dev.

Also changed it so it doesn't barf if the path is already in native format
  (ie. contains os.sep).

"from distutils.core import" it.

setup script) to be a list of Extension instances, rather than a list of of
(ext_name, build_info) tuples.  This is mostly a simplification, but
'check_extension_list()' got a lot more complicated because of the need to
convert the old-style tuples to Extension instances.

Temporarily dropped support for defining/undefining macros in the
'extensions' list -- I want to change the interface, but haven't yet made
the required changes in CCompiler and friends to support this nicely.

Also neatened up the code that merges 'extra_compile_flags' and the CFLAGS
environment variable.

the old (ext_name, build_info) tuple.

useful (suggested by Moshe Zadka).

  just to get a little exception class.
No more string-based exceptions.

or LinkError (exception classes defined in ccompiler.py).

Added 'reinitialize_command()' -- lets us "push" option values in
  a controlled, safe way; this is a small change to the code, but
  a big change to the Distutils philosophy of passing option values
  around.  The preferred mode is still definitely to "pull" options
  from another command (eg. "install" fetches the base build directory
  from "build"), but it is now feasible to "push" options onto another
  command, when you know what's best for it.  One possible application
  will be a "config" command, which pokes around the system and pushes
  values (eg. include and library directories) onto the "build" command.
Added 'dump_option_dicts()' method (for debugging output).

Added a warning for 'bdist_base' directory.

  * Command method 'find_peer()' -> 'get_finalized_command()'
  * Command method 'run_peer()' -> 'run_command()'
Also deleted the 'get_command_option()' method from Command, and
  fixed the one place where it was used (in "bdist_dumb").

directories after all is said and done, so we don't accidentally include
those files in the source distribution.

(This is the quick and easy way to fix this; Andrew says: "Changing
findall() looked like it was going to be messy, so I tried this instead.
The only problem is that redundant directory traversals are being done,
walking through build/ only to throw out all the files found at the end.").

and method 'has_headers()'.

bug when adding new code, so I thought I'd make it blow up earlier
than deep in posix.py.

  * 'headers' entry added to all the install schemes
  * '--install-headers' option added
  * 'install_headers' added to 'sub_commands'
  * added 'dist_name' to configuration variables (along with a few
    others that seem handy: 'dist_version', 'dist_fullname', and
    'py_version'
  * in 'finalize_unix()', make sure 'install_headers' defined if
    user specified 'install_base' and/or 'install_platbase'
  * added 'has_headers()'
  * a few other small changes

Python on UNIX now trusts PYTHONHOME unconditionally

Modules/getpath.c:

Landmark changed to os.py.

Setting PYTHONHOME now unconditionally sets sys.prefix
(and sys.exec_prefix). No further checks are done whether the
standard lib can be found in that location or not. This is in
sync with the PC subdir getpath implementations.

PC/getpathp.c:

Landmark changed to os.py.

PC/os2vacpp/getpathp.c:

Landmark changed to os.py.

Note: BAW's checkin on exceptions.c eliminates earlier concerns about
a bogus PYTHONHOME value leading to a core dump.  Instead it causes a
useless sys.path and prevents imports.

Deprecated direct access to template.
Added note about past need to modify template so that legacy code has a
better chance of being understood, noting that the requirement to reset
template after os.fork() disappeared in 1.5.2.

Removed obsolete comments about this module not creating or removing actual
files.
Removed obsolete comment about users needing to set template to None after
calling os.fork().
