The attached suggested patch changes build-installer to pass along the same Python executable that it itself is running under to the documentation Makefile.  This fixes an issue on OSX where pruning the PATH reverts to the system python (2.3.5) which is too old for Sphinx.  

This does now mean that build-installer itself needs to be run under 2.5+ which contradicts its initial usage comments.  I suspect we should just give up supporting it under 2.3, since an underlying tool no longer supports that, but have not changed those comments in this patch
