boost+python

[Fedja Beader]

Hello,

Has anyone succeeded in building Boost with Python support? I have tried using 
Alois Schloegl's repo at https://github.com/schloegl/mxe.git as it seems to be 
the only one with Python support.

Upon adding python to boost.mk's DEPS and removing the --without-python line, 
the build fails with:
./boost/python/detail/wrap_python.hpp:50:23: fatal error: pyconfig.h: No such 
file or directory

Adding --includedir='$(PREFIX)/$(TARGET)/Python-3.3.0' to boost.mk has no 
effect.
Ideas?

./usr/i686-w64-mingw32.static/Python-3.3.0/PC/os2emx/pyconfig.h

Upon further investigation, it seems that the installation of Python does not 
exactly follow convention. It seems as if the whole build directory is copied 
there:

However, ./usr/i686-w64-mingw32.static/include/Python-3.3.0/
does exist and has a lot of header files inside. But there is no pyconfig.h.
Strange.
