OK, if I understand correctly, the problem you describe does not affect cPython 
because cPython's Distutils does not use get_config_vars(), only 
get_config_var(); but other implementation's ports of Distutils may have 
diverged to use get_config_vars and so the test may fail when running under 
those implementations using setuptools with its newly cloned version of cPython 
Distutils.  If that is the case, I think it's fine to backport the fix to 
cPython tests in the interest of minimizing differences. Since it is minor and 
not really user visible, if you're willing to do so, I'm OK with a PR under 
this bpo and I don't think a NEWS blurb is necessary.  Thanks for bringing it 
up.
