Added section on threads problems on Reliant UNIX; this relates to
bug #113797. We should be able to resolve this for the next release.
Reflowed the comments on Monterey (64-bit AIX) to match the flow of the
other platform-specific sections.

-Monterey (64-bit AIX):
- The current Monterey C compiler (Visual Age) uses the OBJECT_MODE={32|64}
- environment variable to set the compilation mode to either 32-bit or
- 64-bit (32-bit mode is the default). Presumably you want 64-bit

- building (make) Python on Monterey.
