[Distutils] buildout bootstrap.py doesn't work on Sabayon Linux with system python

Hi,

I've downloaded bootstrap.py and tried to initialize with system python:

sabd1 at sab /home/buildout $ wget http://svn.zope.org/*checkout*/zc.buildout/trunk/bootstrap/bootstrap.py

I know, it works with virtualenv, but with system python is this expected behavior?

Thanks
