I ended up scripting the unpacking of the tarball, updating setup.cfg and then \
building. PyQt6_sip uses setuptools as the build backend. The base sip project also \
uses setuptools and has the same issue; I had already automated the updating of \
setup.cfg for sip but had forgotten that I did. I wasn't able to find a general \
solution for setuptools based projects.
