Enthought Canopy 1.0 missing Python.h and other includes

I installed the Canopy distribution from Enthought for Mac OSX 64 bit and the include/python-2.7 folder is missing.

I couldn't find a package that includes this, has anyone had this problem and a solution?

Canopy uses a backport of venv to provide the Python that gets exposed to users. venv does not copy the include directories, but distutils will find and use the include directory from the parent distribution, for example, modulo specific version numbers, it will probably look like this:

/Applications/Canopy.app/appdata/canopy-1.0.0.1160.macosx-x86_64/Canopy.app/Contents/include/python2.7/

If you try compiling a simple extension module, it should work. Please give it a try and let us know if a simple extension module does not work.
