Stéphane, as I understand it, this issue covers two problems:
(1) Building and installing shared modules using Modules/Setup was broken for 
current Python 3 releases;
(2) Using those shared modules when running Python from a build directory 
(rather than from a normal installed Python) is broken.

Problem (1) is now fixed.  Problem (2) remains to be properly fixed; it's a 
little tedious to get right as a fix needs to take into account the SO_ABI and 
ensure built modules get properly cleaned and all the right Makefile 
dependencies work.  I'd be happy to review a patch if someone gets to it before 
I do.  But it seems to me that (1) was the serious problem; (2) is more of a 
minor annoyance for developers with easy workarounds, e.g. use PYTHONPATH or 
install Python to a temporary location for testing.
