The pt-chown binary is discussed in the "Running make install" section
without clarification of the needed configure option. Clarify this
and simplfy the discription which is already covered in the "Configuring
and compiling" section.

The helper binary pt_chown tricked into granting access to another
user's pseudo-terminal.
Pre-conditions for the attack:
* Attacker with local user account
* Kernel with FUSE support
* "user_allow_other" in /etc/fuse.conf
* Victim with allocated slave in /dev/pts
Using the setuid installed pt_chown and a weak check on whether a file
descriptor is a tty, an attacker could fake a pty check using FUSE and
trick pt_chown to grant ownership of a pty descriptor that the current
user does not own. It cannot access /dev/pts/ptmx however.
In most modern distributions pt_chown is not needed because devpts
is enabled by default. The fix for this CVE is to disable building
and using pt_chown by default. We still provide a configure option
to enable hte use of pt_chown but distributions do so at their own
risk.

Can be enabled with --enable-lock-elision=yes at configure time.

The GNU C Library does not support building for i386
therefore we remove mention of this configuration
from the INSTALL file.

[BZ #13750]
Do not build manual anymore in the source dir. Also clean up the
Makefile and remove rules that have been used previously
when we had a stand-alone Makefile which was obsoleted recently.

This reverts commit 0d80ac6813e3bf21fad6d87202e9efe6d0c17a82.
