[PATCH] clarify safe putenv instructions

I found out how my problem in https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html? id=37194#txn-641389 could happen. I compiled perl the wrong way because the instructions are somewhat misleading. Documentation patch attached.

Hi, Thank you for your report. I fixed the putenv() issue on Term-ReadLine-Gnu-1.20. Now you don't have to care about the compile flag of Perl. The correct fix of the INSTALL file is to remove the whole description about the issue. I'll fix it on the next release (Probably it will be after the next release of GNU Readline Library). But it seems that you have another problem with my module. I may be able to help you if you send more information to me. Regards,
