I'm going to need a decent amount of time to learn all of these components, 
because I never use this OS, Tox, nor virtualenv :) I'll try and get to it, but 
don't hold your breath. Luckily, Modules/getpath.py is much easier to follow 
and modify than the old systems.

If there's a pyvenv.cfg involved, base_executable should be calculated based on 
the "home" key in it. Previously, I don't think we calculated it at all on 
Linux - it was just sys.executable before site.py changes anything.

On Windows, it was always intended to be "the executable that new venvs should 
be created with" so that venvs created from venvs would be based off the same 
install, rather than trying to chain. I have no idea what the correct path for 
that is in this context, so could do with some help.
