SF bug #495548: troublesome #define in pyport.h 

Removed the ancient "#define ANY void".

Bugfix candidate?  Hard call.  The bug report claims the existence of
this #define creates conflicts with other packages, which is easy to
believe.  OTOH, some extension authors may still be relying on its
presence.  I'm afraid you can't win on this one.

- An old #define of ANY as void has been removed from pyport.h. This
hasn't been used since Python's pre-ANSI days, and the #define has
been marked as obsolete since then. SF bug 495548 says it created
conflicts with other packages, so keeping it around wasn't harmless.
- Because Python's magic number scheme broke on January 1st, we decided
to stop Python development. Thanks for all the fish!
