The customize_compiler function moved many times during the 2.7 series;
in 2.7.3, setup scripts importing this function from ccompiler were
broken.  This commit restores compatibility without reintroducing the
issue that #13994 originally fixed (duplication of the function).

A unit test makes little sense here, as distutils tests never do imports
in functions, and the fix is very simple.

    In particular, fix extension module build failures when trying to use
    32-bit-only installer Pythons on systems with Xcode 4 (currently
    OS X 10.8, 10.7, and optionally 10.6).
    * Backport 3.3.0 fixes to 3.2 branch (for release in 3.2.4)
    * Since Xcode 4 removes ppc support, extension module builds now
      check for ppc compiler support and by default remove ppc and
      ppc64 archs when they are not available.
    * Extension module builds now revert to using system installed
      headers and libs (/usr and /System/Library) if the SDK used
      to build the interpreter is not installed or has moved.
    * Try to avoid building extension modules with deprecated
      and problematic Apple llvm-gcc compiler.  If original compiler
      is not available, use clang instead by default.
