For which "Unix" platforms?  It's not there under Linux:

Python 2.4.2 (#1, Feb 14 2006, 07:55:13) 
[GCC 3.4.4 (Gentoo 3.4.4-r1, ssp-3.4.4-1.0, pie-8.7.8)] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import fpectl
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
ImportError: No module named fpectl
