As I expected, being able to provide all those paths pulls a lot of other stuffs out of distutils. In fact, almost all the APIs that are located in distutils/sysconfig can be taken out of distutils, and cleaned up for stdlib's benefit. I've started to refactor the code in a module I have called "sysconfig", reusing distutils/sysconfig, distutils/command/install and site code. This "sysconfig" module should provide at the end very useful APIs to query the current Python environment. That's a work in progress but: I've started a branch at /python/branches/tarek_sysconfig so it's easier to get some feedbacks if anyone want to help on this.
