While me trying (Fedora 34 .. ooh no, 33 (but anyway ;D)):

$ ./configure
...
Checking for python3 cffi and setuptools...
No (will not install CFFI-based python bindings).
...

OK, why -- I do have cffi and setuptools python packages installed
..so:

$ script -c 'sh -x ./configure'

reveals (after trying w/ python 3.9 repl) that cffi.FFI().verify()
fails due to missing Python.h... let's hunt (again, I recall solving
this like a year ago or so..) ... apparently python3-devel needed.

$ sudo dnf install python3-devel
$ make distclean
$ ./configure --prefix=$PWD/TTT
$ make
$ make install

... hmm all worked.... pyconfig.h is part of python3-devel package

Have to check how all this behaves on Fedora 34 machine when I 
have access to one (currently away from such machines and from
power grid also (laptop battery power, which I have to preserve,
mobile devices gets charged by small solar panels so no problem
there ;D))
