[issue14356] Distutils2 ignores site-local configuration

[Alexis Metaireau]

Alexis Metaireau <alexis at notmyidea.org> added the comment:

The supposed way to work, for OS packagers, is to ship this 
sysconfig.cfg thing.

I'm not sure we should rely on a customized site-local configuration, 
without defining any standard way of doing this (IOW: what are we 
looking for in the site-local config?)

Also, I would add that this seem to be a compatibility thing, maybe 
could we add a fallback to site-local if no sysconfig is found?
