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.
