-Need for ``install_name_tool`` on OSX?
---------------------------------------
-
-`Virtualenv uses`_ ``install_name_tool``, a tool provided in the Xcode
-developer tools, to modify the copied executable on OSX.  We need
-input from OSX developers on whether this is actually necessary in
-this PEP's implementation of virtual environments, and if so, if there
-is an alternative to ``install_name_tool`` that would allow ``venv``
-to not require that Xcode is installed.
