may differ between sysconfig and distutils.sysconfig due to
compiler customizations on OS X. For now, move those vars
into a separate test and skip if the customization has taken
place in distutils. The long-term solution is to eliminate
having two sysconfig modules.
tailoring for universal builds by factoring out common OS X-specific
customizations from sysconfig, distutils.sysconfig, distutils.util,
and distutils.unixccompiler into a new module _osx_support that can
eventually also be used by packaging.
python executable
The __os_install_macro defines some post-processing activities during an rpm
build; one of the scripts it calls is brp-python-bytecompile, which can take
an argument: the python executable with which to byte-compile .py files in the
package payload.
In some older versions of rpm (e.g. in RHEL 6), this invocation doesn't pass
in an argument, and brp-python-bytecompile defaults to using /usr/bin/python,
which can lead to the .py files being byte-compiled for the wrong version of
python. This has been fixed in later versions of rpm by passing in
%{__python} as an argument to brp-python-bytecompile.
Workaround this by detecting if __os_install_post has a 0-argument invocation
of brp-python-bytecompile, and if so generating an equivalent macro that has
the argument, and explicitly provide the new definition within the specfile.

- Try to avoid building Python or extension modules with problematic
llvm-gcc compiler.
- Since Xcode 4 removes ppc support, extension module builds now
check for ppc compiler support and automatically remove ppc and
ppc64 archs when not available.
- Since Xcode 4 no longer install SDKs in default locations,
extension module builds now revert to using installed headers
and libs if the SDK used to build the interpreter is not
available.
- Update ./configure to use better defaults for universal builds;
in particular, --enable-universalsdk=yes uses the Xcode default
SDK and --with-universal-archs now defaults to "intel" if ppc
not available.
These regex changes fix a number of issues for distutils on Windows:
- #6884: impossible to include a file starting with 'build'
- #9691 and #14004: sdist includes too many files
- #13193: test_filelist failures
This commit replaces the incorrect changes done in 0a94e2f807c7 and
90b30d62caf2 to fix#13193; we were too eager to fix the test failures
and I did not study the code enough before greenlighting patches. This
time we have unit tests from the problems reported by users to be sure
we have the right fix.
