From my rpi-3 build

The file _sysconfigdata.py installed by python-core (both 2 and 3) contains build system paths.

Leaking this information is bad practice and will cause trouble for repeatable builds.

I've attached a file from a local build.

Bug 11513 will solve this as the key point in that bug is that build paths are on the target.
