Greg Ward 5322f008c5 Overhauled to expect 'self.extensions' (taken from 'ext_modules' in the
setup script) to be a list of Extension instances, rather than a list of of
(ext_name, build_info) tuples.  This is mostly a simplification, but
'check_extension_list()' got a lot more complicated because of the need to
convert the old-style tuples to Extension instances.

Temporarily dropped support for defining/undefining macros in the
'extensions' list -- I want to change the interface, but haven't yet made
the required changes in CCompiler and friends to support this nicely.

Also neatened up the code that merges 'extra_compile_flags' and the CFLAGS
environment variable.

This directory contains only a subset of the Distutils, specifically the
Python modules in the 'distutils' and 'distutils.command' packages.
Technically, this is all you need to distribute and install Python modules
using the Distutils.  Most people will want some documentation and other
help, though.  Currently, everything can be found at the Distutils web page:

    http://www.python.org/sigs/distutils-sig/

From there you can access the latest documentation, or download a standalone
Distutils release that includes all the code in this directory, plus
documentation, test scripts, examples, etc.

The Distutils documentation isn't yet part of the standard Python
documentation set, but will be soon.
