New submission from Ben Boeckel:
In the --ignore-dir handling of trace.py, the following is done:
s = s.replace("$prefix",
os.path.join(sys.base_prefix, "lib",
"python" + sys.version[:3]))
s = s.replace("$exec_prefix",
os.path.join(sys.base_exec_prefix, "lib",
"python" + sys.version[:3]))
This does not do what is expected on 64-bit Fedora and newer Debian since the
proper directory is /usr/lib64/python2.7 or /usr/lib/$triple/python2.7. Just
the libsuffix can't be changed either since Fedora also has /usr/lib/python2.7
for arch-independent modules. It'd be nice if $prefix were replaced with the
following directories from sysconfig.get_paths(): platstdlib, platlib, purelib,
and stdlib.
It also erroneously replaces things like '$prefixpath'. It should probably do
split the path on the path separators and only replace components that are
equal to $prefix or $exec_prefix (so that the '$' can be escaped for
directories named as such literally, but that would require a pass to parse the
escapes).
