[issue39695] Failed to build _uuid module, but libraries was installed

[Marco Sulla]

New submission from Marco Sulla <launchpad.net at marco.sulla.e4ward.com>:

When I first done `make` to compile Python 3.9, I did not installed some debian development packages, like `uuid-dev`. So `_uuid` module was not built.

After installed the debian package I re-run `make`, but it failed to build `_uuid` module. I had to edit manually `Modules/_uuidmodule.c` and remove all the `#ifdef` directives and leave only `#include <uuid/uuid.h>`

Maybe `HAVE_UUID_UUID_H` and `HAVE_UUID_H` are created at `configure` phase only?
