Hi folks,

While reviewing https://github.com/python/cpython/pull/17303/files, I
noticed that the configure script update removed the options for
`--runstatedir`. Those options appear to come from a Debian patch that
other distros don't yet have:
https://sources.debian.org/patches/autoconf/2.69-11/add-runstatedir.patch/

Since I use Fedora, running autoreconf locally on the review branch
didn't add those options back, but did add in various macros related
to Fedora's modular build system (we don't use those macros explicitly
ourselves, but presumably some of the m4 macros we do use include them
in their expansions when run on Fedora systems, so aclocal picked them
up).

Does anyone have any recommendations for dealing with this? My current
plan is to revert back to the configure script from master, run
autoreconf, and then use `git add -p` to only add in the desired
changes, leaving everything else as it was on master.

Cheers,
Nick.
