[issue1294959] Problems with /usr/lib64 builds.

STINNER Victor <vstinner at python.org> added the comment:

lib64_tests.py: test suite hardcoded for Fedora, SuSE and PR 18381 with --with-python-libdir=lib64. I wrote it to help me to understand differences between Fedora, SuSE and PR 18381.

On Fedora, the test fails because we have an additional patch on distutils to install packages in /usr/local instead of /usr when using pip:

======================================================================
FAIL: test_distutils_install (__main__.Lib64Tests)
