Support alternate framework names on OSX

[ronaldoussoren]

Python 2.6 and later support alternate basenames for a python framework using the --with-framework-name. This can be used to install multiple build variations of python as a framework.

It would be nice if virtualenv supported this.

Appearently I cannot attach files to issues, I have a patch that implements this feature by changing the code that checks for Python.framework in sys.prefix by more generic code.

If you have a github repo with the patch on link to that using the github flavoured markdown described here (and above the edit box of comments):

http://github.github.com/github-flavored-markdown/

If you don't you can paste the patch as a gist https://gist.github.com/ and link here.

That just seems to be how the github issue tracker works I'm afraid.
