It's now become clear that due to other changes in the python ecosystem in 
Debian, python-virtualenv has to go sooner rather than later (once the cruft 
python-pip is removed it will stop working).  It's tests are already failing.

As a result, I'm bumping this to serious because it needs to be resolved ~now.  
Please let me know if you don't want an NMU.
