test.support declares a TEST_DATA_DIR directory inside the source tree of Python:

TEST_SUPPORT_DIR = os.path.dirname(os.path.abspath(__file__))
TEST_HOME_DIR = os.path.dirname(TEST_SUPPORT_DIR)
TEST_DATA_DIR = os.path.join(TEST_HOME_DIR, "data")

make distclean cleans up the very same directory, see r87481. This feature doesn't cope will with out-of-tree builds with a read-only source directory. It looks like this feature isn't used by any test module. Can I remove it?
