- reset errno before calling confstr - use confstr() doc to simplify
  checks afterwards
- Correct implementation and documentation of os.confstr.  Add a simple
  test case.  I've yet to figure out how to provoke a None return I can test.
- Address issues brought up by MvL on python-checkins.
  I tested this with valgrind on amd64.

  The man pages I found for diff architectures are inconsistent on this.
  I'm not entirely sure this change is correct for all architectures
  either.

  Perhaps we should just over-allocate and not worry about it?

The change to return None instead of "" in case of unconfigured
values has not been backported.

# ----------------------------------
# Don't include <ctype.h> because on OSF/1 3.0 it includes
# <sys/types.h> which includes <sys/select.h> which contains a
# prototype for select.  Similarly for bzero.
#
# A similar problem afflicts HP/UX, but it also hits <sys/time.h>
#
# This test used to merely assign f=$1 in main(), but that was
# optimized away by HP unbundled cc A.05.36 for ia64 under +O3,
# presumably on the basis that there's no need to do that store if the
# program is about to exit.  Conversely, the AIX linker optimizes an
# unused external declaration that initializes f=$1.  So this test
# program has both an external initialization of f, and a use of f in
# main that affects the exit status.
