[issue8577] test_distutils fails if srcdir != builddir

[Ronald Oussoren]

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

When I build the trunk with srcdir != builddir test_distutils fails when running tests.

To reproduce:
* Create a checkout of the trunk and chdir into this
* mkdir build
* cd build
* ../configure
* make test

This results in a failure for test_distutils
