Summary: SEEK_{SET,CUR,END} missing in 2.2.2

Initial Comment:
Python 1.5.2 used to define SEEK_{SET,CUR,END} both in
FCNTL.py and in posixfile.py

Python 2.2.2 obsoletes both of them (and the symbols
are no longer in FCNTL anyway).

A quick grep on the 2.2.2 tree shows me posixfile is
the only place that still defines the SEEK_* constants.
It seems to me it's wrong to drop the constants
(because a deprecated module will eventually be dropped).

Would you agree that these constants are best located in the
os module?
