README: changed URL format to <URL:...>; added section on Tk.

Makefile.in: run config.status in "make recheck".
configure.in: add test for hypot().
config.h.in, configure: since configure.in changed.
rest: the usual boring stuff.

 Known BUGS in 1.1.1 and 1.2
 ---------------------------
 
+(-) C-level coerce() doesn't call __coerce__ when it should (and
+similar for __cmp__)
+
+(-) tkinter seems to leave an exception around sometime which breaks
+unmarshalling code objects [hard to reproduce, have added a trap to
+catch it]
+
+(-) destroying all modules may destroy __builtin__ (or other modules)
+while destructors of other modules may still need it [hard to fix --
+could maintain a list of all modules in order of importation so we can
+destroy them in reverse order???  really hopeless -- would have to
+destroy objects in a module in reverse order too...]
+
+(-) [X]DECREF can cause the interpreter to be called recursively (for
+__del__ disciplines) -- so list and dict implementation calls doing
+DECREF can cause recursive calls to methods of the object being
+modified.  Other files too.  [Only partially fixed -- listobject.c is
+still suspect.]
+
+(-) struct module aligns doubles wrongly when compiled with -DDEBUG on
+sparc
+
+(-) if __getattr__ prints something, calling repr(x) from cmd line
+forgets a newline
+
+(-) doneimport() should be called *before* the Py_AtExit code is called
+
