[New-bugs-announce] [issue15458] Add python-config --configdir option

[Barry A. Warsaw]

New submission from Barry A. Warsaw <barry at python.org>:

To assist with vendor builds, Matthias has requested added a --configdir option to the python3-config script.  This would return sysconfig.get_config_var('LIBPL').  The value is embedded in the output for --ldflags, but not in a convenient way.

The change is fairly trivial; see attached patch.  I am assigning this to Georg and making it a release blocker because I would like to get a freeze exemption for Python 3.3.  If Georg agrees, I will commit the patch.  If not, please twiddle Priority, Versions, and Assigned To as appropriate.
