virtualenv activate_this with a different python version

In the activate_this.py script:

site_packages = os.path.join(base, 'lib', 'python%s' % sys.version[:3], 'site-packages')

It uses sys.version[:3] and this evaluates to python2.6 (the system default). But I had installed python2.7 and created my virtualenv with:

virtualenv -p /usr/local/bin/python2.7 venv

How do I make virtualenv work with the correct version of python?

Creating a symlink from /usr/bin/python to /usr/local/bin/python2.7 is not a solution because the CentOS system depends on python2.6.

Let's face it, python virtualenv is very limited and has very specific usecases. The only way i've been able to accomplish this is by rebuilding mod_wsgi against the desired version of python

How i say the interpreter version for wsgi apache
