Subject: [PATCH] Patching python-virtualenv so that it doesn't fail if the
 python version is specified, e.g. --python=python2.7, and now iff the python
 version is specified it successfully also installs additional libs such as
 readline into the virtualenv

+Without this patch `virtualenv --python=python2.7 .` fails with an error because it notices that the python readline.so is not in the same path as python2.7. I assume this is to avoid copying the wrong file on systems where it is possible to find incompatible libraries by accident. Adding "/nix/store" to the prefix fixes this problem. Unfortunately readline is still not available if you just run `virtualenv .`.
