Summary: #define collision: LONG_BIT

Initial Comment:
Platform: RedHat Linux 7.0, Linux kernel 2.2.17

When building Python 2.1 final release after

./configure --prefix=/usr/local

LONG_BIT definition found in
/usr/local/include/bits/xopen_lim.h causes an error
message originated from LONG_BIT size test in Python.h.

Workaround (only an ugly hack): Insert "#define
LONG_BIT 32" in Python.h before the #ifndef LONG_BIT
line. This causes a #define collision warning, but
Python 2.1 compiles successfully and works.
