To test PR 4172 on linux one needs a chroot. The following test is run on 
archlinux using systemd-nspawn (a chroot on steroids, see 
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Systemd-nspawn).

1) Setup systemd-nspawn by installing arch-install-scripts and by using 
pacstrap to install the archlinux 'base' package group in the /tmp/chroot 
container, this installs about 600M of archlinux packages in the chroot:
  $ mkdir /tmp/chroot
  $ pacman -S arch-install-scripts
  # pacstrap -i -c -d /tmp/chroot base --ignore linux

2) Build and install Python in the /tmp/python-build DESTDIR directory:
  $ mkdir /tmp/python-build
  $ ./configure --prefix=/ --without-ensurepip && make
  $ make DESTDIR=/tmp/python-build install

3) Copy the Python distribution to the chroot directory (note the trailing 
slash in the source directory):
  # rsync -av --keep-dirlinks /tmp/python-build/ /tmp/chroot

4) Boot into the chroot container and run python:
  # systemd-nspawn -b -D /tmp/chroot
