The following comments in Makefile.pre.in (which is a file that I
didn't write) might be what you need:

# Run "make -f Makefile.pre.in boot".  This creates Makefile
# (producing Makefile.pre and sedscript as intermediate files) and
# config.c, incorporating the values for sys.prefix, sys.exec_prefix
# and sys.version from the installed Python binary.  For this to work,
# the python binary must be on your path.  If this fails, try
#   make -f Makefile.pre.in Makefile VERSION=1.4 installdir=<prefix>
# where <prefix> is the prefix used to install Python for installdir
# (and possibly similar for exec_installdir=<exec_prefix>).
