[issue7757] sys.path is incorrect when prefix is ""

[Michael Smith]

Yes, that does look related. The fix from Issue1676135 seems to handle --prefix="/" properly, and from what I can tell PREFIX does get set to "/".

There is also code in getpath.c to set sys.prefix to "/" if it's "".

The correct prefix for configure is actually "", not "/", to avoid double-slashes - but neither one seems to work at the moment.
