[issue9841] sysconfig and distutils.sysconfig differ in subtle ways

New submission from Éric Araujo : 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

Éric Araujo added the comment: Good idea. I wonder if the genericity (being able to specify the placeholder) is needed; the ellipsis is used by built-in containers (not documented AFAICT, see #9842) and seems a good choice for most (all?) of the cases. What bothers me is that this simple, c

Éric Araujo added the comment: This strict freeze policy has been decided by Tarek. The less work there is on distutils’ side, the less synchronization we’ll have to do in distutils2. We do fix doc bugs, we can also fix markup or add links, but that’s it. Improving docs is for distutils2.
