Ned Deily <n...@acm.org> added the comment:

I suppose all of the relevant setup.py build-time tests could be restructured 
as autoconf-style tests using gcc & friends with consistent arguments (with the 
build and with Distutils) so there wouldn't need to be special knowledge in 
setup.py or configure about what paths are "system directories".  That might 
also solve the problems for other platforms as well.  A bit messy but maybe the 
right solution.
