[issue12141] sysconfig.get_config_vars('srcdir') fails in specific cases

[Ned Deily]

Ned Deily <nad at acm.org> added the comment:

I think one of the objectives of the test is to see that it works with the C API of that particular Python release as captured in its version of xxmodule.c.  And, while it could be argued that both distutils and packaging don't need their own copies, I think it is cleaner to keep the two testing environment uncoupled.
