zfec: fix README.txt to explain how to use setuptools with GNU stow better

Also remove requirement of setuptools >= v0.6c3.  I *think* that using setuptools in the modern way relieves this requirement, but I haven't tested it on dapper yet.

@ -31,15 +31,10 @@ and the addition of a command-line tool named "zfec".
This package is managed with the "setuptools" package management tool. To
build and install the package directly into your system, just run "python
./setup.py install". If you prefer to keep the package limited to a specific
directory so that you can explicitly manage it (perhaps by using the "GNU
directory so that you can manage it yourself (perhaps by using the "GNU
stow") tool, then give it these arguments: "python ./setup.py install
--prefix=. --root=$specificdirectory".
Note: the installation script conflicts with setuptools with version number
earlier than 0.6c3. (Such a version of setuptools is available in Ubuntu
6.06 LTS Dapper.) If you have such a conflicting version of setuptools, you
can either upgrade to a newer version of setuptools, or simply uninstall that
old, conflicting version.
