I don't see sysconfig mentioned in the discussion (maybe for a
reason). It might provide build-time information e.g.,
built_for_android = 'android' in sysconfig.get_config_var('MULTIARCH')
assuming the complete value is something like 'arm-linux-android'. It
says that the python binary is built for android (the current platform
may or may not be Android).
