$ python-config --cflags
-I/usr/include/python2.7 -I/usr/include/x86_64-linux-gnu/python2.7
-fno-strict-aliasing -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 -g -fstack-protector
--param=ssp-buffer-size=4 -Wformat -Werror=format-security  -DNDEBUG
-g -fwrapv -O2 -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes

Please note that headers on debian/ubuntu systems are split between
generic (same across all CPU architectures) and architecture specific.
I know for sure that python[3]-config lists them, can't remember what
the python api is to get those as all.
