Please report a bug to PyXML upstream, with a note that HAVE_MEMMOVE
detection is wrong upstream and instead should use something like this
instead of header parsing:

    import sysconfig; sysconfig.get_config_var("HAVE_MEMMOVE")

Since that correctly detects that memmove is defined in Ubuntu, and
will work in any python compilations.

No, clearly the build is correct =)))) please re-read my comment again.

Title:
  pyconfig.h is missing HAVE_MEMMOVE

Status in “python2.7” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  After upgrading to kubuntu 13.04, I found that I was unable to install
  pyxml via setuptools. It would throw the following error during the
  build process:

  extensions/expat/lib/xmlparse.c:75:2: error: #error memmove does not
  exist on this platform, nor is a substitute available

  Appending the following line to /usr/include/python2.7/pyconfig.h
  seems to resolve the issue:

  #define HAVE_MEMMOVE 1
