In python3.10 and earlier "python3 -m venv something" creates "something/bin/python" as a symlink to the interpreter itself.

In python3.11 (a5) the same command no longer creates "something/bin/python", but only the ".../python3" symlink. 

With this change the "python" command no longer refers to the interpreter in an activated virtualenv, but to a different binary on $PATH (if any).

I tested using the Python 3.11a5 installer for macOS on python.org.
