You'd be insane to stuff this in just before releasing 2.3 (since this
is the first time I've ever written for autoconf), but here it is..

Running on a RedHat 9 machine:
checking for wchar.h... yes
checking for wchar_t... yes
checking size of wchar_t... 4
checking for UCS-4 tcl... yes
checking what type to use for unicode... wchar_t

Running on a RedHat 7.1 machine:
checking wchar.h usability... yes
checking wchar.h presence... yes
checking for wchar.h... yes
checking for wchar_t... yes
checking size of wchar_t... 4
checking for UCS-4 tcl... no
checking what type to use for unicode... unsigned short

Tested nowhere else in the universe... in particular, there's no
attempt to find the location of the tcl.h header as setup.py does
since it's in /usr/include/tcl.h on my system.

Detection of UCS-4 tcl does not override the --enable-unicode=3D setting.
Someone who is building Python on a redhat9 system but does not want
_tkinter may want the chance to override it, if only due to increased
memory consumption of that build.
