+Add support in Python build system to specify host pgen
+
+Python needs a "pgen" program to build itself. Unfortunately, the
+Python build system assumes that it can use the pgen program it has
+just built to build itself. Obviously, this cannot work in
+cross-compilation mode since the pgen program have been built for the
+target.
+
+Therefore, this patch adds support in the Python build system for the
+new PGEN_FOR_BUILD variable, so that we can point Python ./configure
+script to the pgen program that have been previously built for the
+host.
+
+Patch ported to python2.7 by Maxime Ripard <ripard@archos.com>, and
+later significantly reworked by Thomas Petazzoni
+<thomas.petazzoni@free-electrons.com>, with some inspiration taken
+from the Python patches of the PTXdist project, and then ported to
+python3.3 by Maxime Ripard <maxime.ripard@free-electrons.com>

+Do not generate .pyo files
+
+By default, the Python installation byte-compiles all modules in two
+forms: the normal bytecode (.pyc) and an optimized bytecode (.pyo).
+
+According to
+http://www.network-theory.co.uk/docs/pytut/CompiledPythonfiles.html,
+the optimization do not do anything useful, and generating both the
+"non-optimized" and "optimized" bytecode variants takes time.

+Make sure setup.py reads the correct CONFIG_ARGS
+
+The setup.py script that builds and installs all the Python modules
+shipped with the interpreter looks at the CONFIG_ARGS variable stored
+in the "sysconfig" module to look at the ./configure options and
+adjust its behaviour accordingly.
+
+Unfortunately, when cross-compiling, the value of CONFIG_ARGS returned
+by the sysconfig are the one passed to the ./configure script of the
+*host* Python and not the one we're currently building for the target.
+
+In order to avoid that, we re-initialize the values in the sysconfig
+module by re-reading the environment at the beginning of the setup.py
+script, and we make sure that the CONFIG_ARGS variable is actually
+part of the environment of setup.py.
+
+See the beginning of
+http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.python.devel/99772 for the
+inspiration.

+Change the location of pyconfig.h
+
+The Python interpreter has a really strange behaviour: at *runtime*,
+it reads a Makefile and a header file named pyconfig.h to get some
+information about the configuration.
+
+The Makefile is located in usr/lib/python3.3/config-3.3m, which is fine
+since this location is kept on the target.
+
+However, by default, the pyconfig.h is installed in
+usr/include/python3.3m, but we completely remove the usr/include
+directory for the target. Since making an exception just for
+pyconfig.h is annoying, this patch also installs pyconfig.h to
+usr/lib/python3.3/config-3.3m, and modifies the sysconfig module so that it
+looks in this location instead of usr/include.
+
+The pyconfig.h is still kept in usr/include/python3.3m, because it is
+needed in the $(STAGING_DIR) when building third-party Python
+extensions that contain C code.

+Remove runtime library paths
+
+For some extensions (sqlite and dbm), Python setup.py script
+hardcode a runtime path (rpath) into the extension. However, this
+runtime path is incorrect (because it points to the location of the
+library directory on the development machine) and useless (because on
+the target, all useful libraries are in a standard directory searched
+by the dynamic loader). For those reasons, we just get rid of the
+runtime paths in cross-compilation mode.
