Summary: Cygwin auto-import module patch

Initial Comment:
The attached patch enables shared extension
modules to build cleanly under Cygwin without
moving the static initialization of certain function
pointers (i.e., ones exported from the Python
DLL core) to a module initialization function.

Additionally, this patch fixes the modules that
have been changed in the past to accommodate
Cygwin. Specificially, these modules are:

_hotshot.c
_randommodule.c
_tkinter.c
arraymodule.c
bz2module.c
cPickle.c
socketmodule.c

Note that contrary to my recent email to
python-dev, I did *not* make the following
changes:

$ grep '\.tp_.*[ \t]*=' *.c
bz2module.c:    BZ2File_Type.tp_base = &PyFile_Type;
bz2module.c:    BZ2File_Type.tp_new = 
PyFile_Type.tp_new;
posixmodule.c:  StatResultType.tp_new = 
statresult_new;
threadmodule.c: Locktype.tp_doc = lock_doc;
xxsubtype.c:    spamdict_type.tp_base = &PyDict_Type;
xxsubtype.c:    spamlist_type.tp_base = &PyList_Type;

I'm probably missing some magic here: shouldn't there be a
patch to configure.in also to provide the necessary linker
options?

As for the SF breakage: you should file a bug for SF, in the
"alexandria" project. Perhaps better use a support request,
since that gets better attention.

AFAICT, SF is still broken! I *did* check the upload
checkbox!
