Content
If sysconfig._generate_posix_vars() creates the build directory and pybuilddir.txt (instead of setup.py) then it could write _sysconfigdata.py in the correct place. Then setup.py would not have to mess with its own sys.path. One issue with having _sysconfigdata.py in the build dir is that distutils copies it (along with everything else in the build dir) to .../lib/python3.x/lib-dynload. So I think Matthias' patch results in two copies of _sysconfigdata.py being installed (plus __pycache__/_sysconfigdata.pyc).
