I don't see how it could be a "straight forward permissions error".
The file it is saying "Access Denied" on is a file that was just
created by virtualenv, so if there is something wrong with its
permissions then that is a bug in virtualenv. Plus, there isn't
anything wrong with its permissions because if I run
test/Scripts/python.exe from the command line it works fine.
