Christoph Willing <chris.willing at linux.com> put forth the proposition:
> At the moment, SBo builds of python3 on both my daily machine and a
> clean VM result in the include files being placed into
> /usr/include/python3.7m (rather than a plain /usr/include/python3.7).
>
> Apparently the different paths signified use (or non-use) of an internal
> memory allocator which is on by default but controllable using the
> --with(out)-pymalloc configure option when building python3. I've tested
> this and the --without-pymalloc does result in /usr/include/pyton3.7
> (not python3.7m).
>
> BTW this behaviour has changed in 3.8 where everything goes into
> /usr/include/pyton3.8 (see -current, also see
> https://bugs.python.org/issue36707).

> Before proceeding here with a complaint about other packages wrongly
> hard coding  python-related .h files into /usr/include/python3.7, rather

Yup.
