Virtual environments of course isolate you from the system so it isolates you from that too, but that can be disabled by using —system-site-packages.If I understand correctly, --system-site-packages results in the full 
amount of site-wide installed packages to be available. So pip will look 
at them all.

What I am aiming at (and which syseggrecipe does for buildout) is to 
*selectively* and *explicitly* allow some site-wide packages to be 
available in the virtualenv. "Give me the global numpy and lxml, please!".
