Reverting the backport would also fix the breakage. Is the addition of _sysconfigdata not a new feature? It changes the place where sysconfig (and distutils sysconfig?) looks for configuration data, and hence breaks all instructions that mention that you can change the Makefile in {sys.prefix}/lib/python2.7/config to globally affect the compilation flags (although there hopefully aren't a lot of those)
