Summary: gcc-3.3: dereferencing type-punned pointer

Initial Comment:
Building with gcc-3.3 leads to about 250 warnings

263 dereferencing type-punned pointer will break
strict-aliasing rules 

Include/intobject.h:#define Py_True ((PyObject *)
&_Py_TrueStruct) 

although the test results look good.

Please add -fno-strict-aliasing to the compiler flags,
when compiling with gcc-3.3 or up.
