[issue3054] test_disutils fails

[Ronald Oussoren]

New submission from Ronald Oussoren <ronaldoussoren at mac.com>:

test_distutils fails when you're not building in the root of the source 
tree.

That is:

  mkdir build
  cd build
  ../configure
  make
  make check

This fails like this:

test test_distutils failed -- Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/Users/ronald/Projects/python/python-
trunk/Lib/distutils/tests/test_build_ext.py", line 23, in setUp
    shutil.copy(xx_c, self.tmp_dir)
  File "/Users/ronald/Projects/python/python-trunk/Lib/shutil.py", line 
82, in copy
    copyfile(src, dst)
  File "/Users/ronald/Projects/python/python-trunk/Lib/shutil.py", line 
46, in copyfile
    fsrc = open(src, 'rb')
IOError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory:
