Restore support for Microsoft VC6 compiler.
Some functions in the msvcrt module are skipped,
and socket.ioctl is enabled only when using a more recent Platform SDK.
(and yes, there are still companies that use a 10-years old compiler)
........
For some yet unknown reason, MSVC's linker fails to resolve
_stringio's module initializer (PyInit__stringio). This probably means
the module is not build correctly. Therefore, I am removing Windows
support temporarily until I find how to add new modules properly for
MSVC.

Patch by Humberto Diogenes for issue 2849, removing rfc822 module from
the standard library. There are still a few cases of it in Demo and
Tools, but that's fine for now. These should eventually get cleaned
up. mimetools still has an import of rfc822, but mimetools itself
should go away.

Issue #1798: Add ctypes calling convention that allows safe access of errno.
ctypes maintains thread-local storage that has space for two error
numbers: private copies of the system 'errno' value and, on Windows,
the system error code accessed by the GetLastError() and
SetLastError() api functions.
Foreign functions created with CDLL(..., use_errno=True), when called,
swap the system 'errno' value with the private copy just before the
actual function call, and swapped again immediately afterwards. The
'use_errno' parameter defaults to False, in this case 'ctypes_errno'
is not touched.
On Windows, foreign functions created with CDLL(...,
use_last_error=True) or WinDLL(..., use_last_error=True) swap the
system LastError value with the ctypes private copy.
The values are also swapped immeditately before and after ctypes
callback functions are called, if the callbacks are constructed using
the new optional use_errno parameter set to True: CFUNCTYPE(...,
use_errno=TRUE) or WINFUNCTYPE(..., use_errno=True).
New ctypes functions are provided to access the ctypes private copies
from Python:
- ctypes.set_errno(value) and ctypes.set_last_error(value) store
'value' in the private copy and returns the previous value.
- ctypes.get_errno() and ctypes.get_last_error() returns the current
ctypes private copies value.
........
Issue #1798: Add ctypes calling convention that allows safe access to
errno (and LastError, on Windows).
ctypes maintains a module-global, but thread-local, variable that
contains an error number; called 'ctypes_errno' for this discussion.
This variable is a private copy of the systems 'errno' value; the copy
is swapped with the 'errno' variable on several occasions.
Foreign functions created with CDLL(..., use_errno=True), when called,
swap the values just before the actual function call, and swapped
again immediately afterwards. The 'use_errno' parameter defaults to
False, in this case 'ctypes_errno' is not touched.
The values are also swapped immeditately before and after ctypes
callback functions are called, if the callbacks are constructed using
the new optional use_errno parameter set to True: CFUNCTYPE(..., use_errno=TRUE)
or WINFUNCTYPE(..., use_errno=True).
Two new ctypes functions are provided to access the 'ctypes_errno'
value from Python:
- ctypes.set_errno(value) sets ctypes_errno to 'value', the previous
ctypes_errno value is returned.
- ctypes.get_errno() returns the current ctypes_errno value.
---
On Windows, the same scheme is implemented for the error value which
is managed by the GetLastError() and SetLastError() windows api calls.
The ctypes functions are 'ctypes.set_last_error(value)' and
'ctypes.get_last_error()', the CDLL and WinDLL optional parameter is
named 'use_last_error', defaults to False.
---
On Windows, TlsSetValue and TlsGetValue calls are used to provide
thread local storage for the variables; ctypes compiled with __GNUC__
uses __thread variables.
