FTBFS: in raring pyconfig.h is in /usr/include/x86_64-linux-gnu/python2.7 or .. /i386-linux-gnu/..

[Doug McMahon]

So build fails, at least locally
.

This has been fixed in the yesterday python2.7 upload so it doesn't FTBFS anymore and for this reason the patch is unnecessary. Thanks for your work, Julian.
