Isn't `python-config' just a trivial wrapper around the
functions provided by the `distutils.sysconfig' [1] (or
whatever) Python module, made to allow simple (and conventional)
access to these functions from the Shell?
I've already suggested for GRASS to be switched to use
`AC_PYTHON_DEVEL' (from the Autoconf macro archive), which
doesn't depend on the wrapper and uses the Python interface
directly.
