New submission from Éric Araujo <mer...@netwok.org>:

With the recent distutils revert, code that was removed from 
distutils.sysconfig is now back.  This causes an unfortunate code duplication 
that raises maintenance cost (see msg116087 for an example).

Even if distutils is feature-frozen, I think that it should be changed to use 
the sysconfig module again.  Think about it that way: The new feature is 
sysconfig itself, this does not break the distutils freeze since compatibility 
would be retained.
