Thats what I do currently - I set things to bin and patch Python and the tools so that they work.

However, have considered this to be a little bit of a wart anyway for a long time - even before I adopted my current method of working - because it is a pointless inconsistency.

The fact that it makes virtual environments consistent across platforms, together with pyvenv going into 3.3, gave me enough of a push to elevate this from private annoyance to "should fix."

Thanks,
