Can you please apply fix-root-prefix.patch? Or the updated version fof issue9674.patch that I've attached?

sysconfig tests will still fail and it will return bogus paths with double slash (e.g. //lib/python2.7) but at least Python will be installable with prefix=/ and will not mess up with files on root (/) when DESTDIR is set. That may not be complete solution but it's a step forward to that.
