Summary: configure weaknesses on HP-UX

Initial Comment:
1. configure doesn't handle HP-UX release numbers
(e.g., B.11.00), resulting in MACHDEP = "hpuxB".

2. After checking for wchar.h, configure doesn't
include it when checking the size of wchar_t.

(Python 2.2b1 on HP-UX 11.00)

Thanks! Checked into CVS.

With this patch, do threads work on your system? (We've had
long-standing complaints that Python can't be built with
threads on HP-UX 11, but these are hard to verify for us. It
would be great if we could say with confidence that this is
fixed in 2.2b2.)
