Try
./python setup.py build_ext --help
There are a couple flags you can give to the build_ext command that direct
to the appropriate include and library directories.
It would be nice if distutils could be persuaded to listen to *FLAGS, but it
doesn't. Maybe someone reading this would like to make it so.
