Documented set_python_build function that is undefined? #286

Description

@jakirkham

In the docs here (see below) and the legacy CPython docs, set_python_build is covered

.. function:: set_python_build()
Inform the :mod:`distutils.sysconfig` module that it is being used as part of
the build process for Python. This changes a lot of relative locations for
files, allowing them to be located in the build area rather than in an installed
Python.

However am not seeing it defined in the code here. It looks like CPython may have removed this a long time ago ( python/cpython#36488 ). If so, would it make sense to drop it from the docs?
