[issue15364] sysconfig confused by relative paths

[Richard Oudkerk]

Richard Oudkerk <shibturn at gmail.com> added the comment:

Updated patch which clarifies that for an installed python on a posix system, get_config_var('srcdir') == get_path('stdlib').

Eg, if sys.executable == '/usr/local/bin/python3.3' then get_config_var('srcdir') == '/usr/local/lib/python3.3'.

This is a little arbitrary, but seems as sensible a value as any other.  (Or maybe it would be better to have get_config_var('srcdir') == None instead.)
