1. configure and build python using the --includedir
option.  For example:

$ configure --prefix=/TANGO/3/rel
--includedir=/TANGO/3/rel/inc

2. Run

$ make install

3. Notice that the include files are placed in
/TANGO/3/rel/include not /TANGO/3/rel/inc.

4. Verify with

$ python -c 'from distutils.sysconfig import *;print
get_python_inc()

5. The problem is that get_python_inc() hard codes the
include file path to use the name "include"

6. Other programs using distutils will fail since the
INSTALL_SCHEMES found in install.py also have the name
"include" hard coded.

7.  Suggested fix would be to use --includedir to
calculate the include path used by distutils.
