LIPL has the value

  ${prefix}/lib/python3.5/config-$(VERSION)$(ABIFLAGS)-x86_64-linux-gnu

and the code relies to substitute parameters from the left to the right, but it prefers $() variables. the attached patch substitutes all variables from the left to the right.

Could you please provide an example where unpatched code fails but patched code work?

yes, see the substitution for the LIBPL macro, which leaves ${prefix} unexpanded.

Sorry, I don't understand your example. Could you please provide reproducible Python code? Or better a patch for Lib/test/test_sysconfig.py?

I've added a test case for ef84d21f5292. I think this can be closed now. Please reopen if not.
