I'm applying this patch in Debian:

To Expose SOABI in sysconfig. So that dh_pypy can use it to generate useful 
dependencies.
See https://bugs.debian.org/803689 for context.

This is the only way to access the soabi value, that's documented in the PEP. 
It looks like it was left out of 
https://bitbucket.org/pypy/pypy/commits/6dde6de7fec4

sysconfig is in general very incomplete hacky in PyPy, and needs hacks like 
this. I just want a second set of eyes to say this is sane to commit.
