python_configdir=`${PYTHON} -c "from distutils.sysconfig import
get_python_lib as f; import os; print os.path.join(f(plat_specific=1,
standard_lib=1),'config')"`

That should work, regardless of the lib directory that Python is
installed to.
(at least it works on my system):

flaw@void:~ % py -c "from distutils.sysconfig import get_python_lib as
f; import os; print
os.path.join(f(plat_specific=1,standard_lib=1),'config')"
/usr/local/lib/python2.3/config
