m4/python_devel.m4 seems to suggest it was made optional on purpose, I
don't know why or which versions of Python were the first to include the
tool though.

Perhaps AX_CHECK_PYTHON_FORTIFY_NOOPT should be a nop unless
python-config is available?

Or perhaps AX_CHECK_PYTHON_DEVEL should export PYTHON_CFLAGS etc which
the fortify test should look at instead of invoking python-cofnig?
