 I searched for a long time for the autoconf macros to detect the location of
Python headers and libraries to be able to embed Python into a C++ program but
never found anything - and, if I didn't miss them in your (impressive!) list,
you don't have them neither. So I just thought that I might contribute my code
for finding out the location of the headers and libs (including some weird
stuff like automatically adding -lreadline under FreeBSD or -lutil under Linux
for 2.0 to make it link...) if you can make it more presentable - currently
it's really awful as I don't know m4 at all. Someone who does can probably
simplify it significantly...
