[mod_python] make failed on AIX 5.1 using xlc

Seems to be some quirk with xlc compiler. Never liked that compiler,
always did strange things.

Try hacking the code so that instead of:

  (destructor)request_dealloc,     /* tp_free */

it says:

  (void(*)(void*))request_dealloc,     /* tp_free */

Try a typedef for the function pointer if I got the cast wrong or it
doesn't want to accept that.
