Agreed. I've asked Paul to post the "final" PR early, even though it 
will take some refactoring as other PRs go in, so that we can see the 
broader picture now.

There's also an option to create an ARM-specific pyconfig.h if 
necessary, but I don't believe it will be.

I created https://bugs.python.org/issue35920 for this work.

Cheers,
Steve
