Just to be clear, I made that suggestion in an effort to keep both 
myself and Van - that the Python executable would remain in the same 
place for installed Pythons in the interests of b/w compat, but change 
it in the virtual env in an effort to keep Van happy when working in 
such environments.  I now fully concede that was a dumb idea :)
