See the distutils commit message for more detail.

- First, support.fixup_build_ext (already used to set proper
  library_dirs value under Unix shared builds) gains the ability to
  correctly set the debug attribute under Windows debug builds.

- Second, the filename for the extension module gets a _d suffix under
  debug builds.

- Third, the test code properly puts our customized build_ext object
  into an internal dictionary to make sure that the install command will
  later use our object instead of re-creating one.  That’s the downside
  of using low-level APIs in our test code: we have to manually push
  knobs and turn handles that would otherwise be handled behind the
  scenes.

Thanks to Nadeem for the testing.
