[issue5436] test_distutils fails with official Mac OS X Installer Disk Image (3.0.1)

[Tarek Ziadé]

Tarek Ziadé <ziade.tarek at gmail.com> added the comment:

That's because get_config_vars reads the src_dir
located in your Makefile (in config/Makefile):

srcdir=>>......./Users/ronald/Projects/python/bld/r301
VPATH=>.>......./Users/ronald/Projects/python/bld/r301

Moreover, the test is totally broken because it uses 
"Include" which won't work under Windows in that case.

So basically, it will work only on a trunk version.

This test has to be reworked asap.
