Thanks for your reply.

Thus, distutils is not designed for distributing a module outside the Python source repository ?

I don't understand your question. When Python is installed, it installs a copy of the Makefile that was used to create that Python installation. So this has nothing to do with the source directory used to compile Python, only the contents of "/usr/lib/python2.x/config/" -- the directory where Python's build configuration information is copied upon installation.
