Well sysconfig.py/sysconfig.cfg have been copied as is. I've only copied over
specific things we need from shutil/functools/os, etc. so far to util.py. I
haven't looked at 2.4/2.5 support yet: things like hashlib would probably need
to be treated the same way Django handles this sort of backport of functionality.
