The current specfile puts %{pylibdir}/config/* into the devel subpackage. 
However, distutils needs to load %{pylibdir}/config/Makefile (see the
get_makefile_filename() function in distutils/sysconfig.py.  Since distutils is
and should be in the main python3 package, then %{pylibdir}/config/Makefile
also needs to be in the main python3 package instead of the devel subpackage. 
Based on _init_posix() in distutils/sysconfig.py, it looks like this is also
true for /usr/include/python2.6/pyconfig.h.  The only alternative would be to
put distutils into the python3-devel subpackage, but that doesn't seem right at
all.
