[issue8107] test_distutils fails on Windows in 2.6.5rc2

Also, notice that srcdir can be broken on some platform. For instance, under Mac OS X Framework install:

>>> import distutils.sysconfig
>>> distutils.sysconfig.get_config_var('srcdir')
'/Volumes/Rivendell/Users/ronald/Projects/python/r264'

we get the path that was used by Ronald to compile the distribution :)

Working on it..
