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

That's unfortunate.  But the documented location for customize_compiler is and, AFAIK, had always been in distutils.sysconfig.  It was an inadvertent consequence of the bad revert during the 2.7 development cycle that a second copy was made available in distutils.ccompiler.  That change was not supposed to be released in 2.7 and was never documented.  So I don't think there is anything that can or needs to be done as this point in Python itself.  Other opinions?
