It is reported that some RedHat packages (for at least FC5 and FC6, but not

FC7) contain a full working distutils in the 'python' package, but only
contain the Python header files in the 'python-devel' package.  This allows
configure to succeed, but make install fails to setup the japanese and
korean codecs.  This change adds a specific test for Python.h to the
distutils test.
