When I use sysconfig, I just want to get things done as quickly and painlessly
as possible. The API suits me just fine (in fact, I find it one of the APIs
that are easy to remember).

Given that sysconfig will always contain a certain amount of hackery and
will always change to accommodate new systems, I'd prefer that it remains
a standalone module.
