Hi,

I've come across a problem whereby if you do an os.execv to a python3.6 virtualenv python inside python2.7 vs python3.6 then the resulting python session has a different sys.executable.

Where if you os.execv from python2.7 the sys.executable is equal to the virtualenv python

Whereas from python3.6 the resulting python session has a sys.executable of the system python.

An example of this in play can be found at https://gist.github.com/delfick/d750dc83e3b28e90cef8e2bfbd5b175a

Note that I don't see the problem if the virtualenv is based on python2.7 (https://gist.github.com/delfick/f1ad6872e2614189a7d98f2583ffc564)
