This:
  configure:20003: checking Python.h usability
  configure:20003: g77 -c -g -O2 conftest.f >&5
  In file included from conftest.f:0:
  conftest.f:16: error: undefined or invalid # directive

looks like the configure.ac file from which this configure script was
generated, has some serious issues.  It seems to lack an AC_PROG_CC or
AC_LANG_PUSH([C]) before the Python.h header check.  Can you post a link
to the source tarball you are trying to configure?

These commands are all tried, but some of them work only on some
systems.  Nothing to worry about.

Hope that helps.
