The _sysconfigdata.py module contains definitions that are needed when building Python modules. In cross-compilation mode, when building Python extensions for the target, we need to use the _sysconfigdata.py of the target Python while executing the host Python.

However until now, the _sysconfigdata.py module was installed in build/lib.<arch>-<version> directory, together with a number of architecture-specific shared objects, which cannot be used with the host Python.

To solve this problem, this patch moves _sysconfigdata.py to a separate location, build/sysconfigdata.<arch>-<version>/, and only this directory gets added to the PYTHONPATH of the host Python interpreter when building Python modules for the target.

The patch is not working as it should be, so I withdraw it for the moment.
