      Combine Numpy distutils style library configuration dictionaries.
  
      Parameters
      ----------
      *dicts
          Dictionaries of keys. List-valued keys will be concatenated.
          Otherwise, duplicate keys with different values result to
          an error. The input arguments are not modified.
      **kw
          Keyword arguments are treated as an additional dictionary
          (the first one, i.e., prepended).
  
      Returns
      -------
      combined
          Dictionary with combined values.
