FYI, I also tried doing:

Not sure if this indicates a problem with the way buildout.python builds
python.
I think this is simply because some of the zc.buildout tests run python
-S (don't use site.py), and virtualenv relies on a modified site.py to
add the stdlib to sys.path. IOW, the zc.buildout tests are not
compatible with virtualenv's approach to isolation.
