Summary: Framework reports wrong sys.executable

Initial Comment:
I've run in to this a couple of times since I have 
been using Python exclusively on OS X built as a 
Framework. When built and installed as a 
framework, python reports that sys.executable is:

/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/
2.2/Python

Which may or may not be technically right. But 
since certain scripts assume they can execute the 
value of sys.executable to get a new python 
interpreter, they fail. Instead, they need to be 
pointed to

/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/
2.2/bin/python.exe

Not sure if and how this can be fixed, but it would 
be nice.
