Haven't looked at the Semantic code, but I removed the executable-find
call in python.el since it was redundant anyway and hence ended up just
hiding the name of the program we're looking for.

I also added some FIXME comments in other code using executable-find
where several things look fishy.

Fabián, can you take a look at those FIXMEs?

>> and maybe does not need its own special value for exec-path?).

It does, in order to support Python's virtualenv.

BTW, Fabián, could you also rename python-shell-virtualenv-path to
something else (e.g python-shell-virtualenv-root or
python-shell-virtualenv-directory or python-shell-virtualenv-filename or
just python-shell-virtualenv?) since the GNU convention is to use "path"
only to mean "a list of directories in which we search", as in $PATH,
$MANPATH, load-path, ...

I know the kind of message you're talking about, but I don't know when
it occurs.  Do you have a recipe?

Not sure if someone installed your code already or what, but the above
looks identical to the current code.  Am I missing something?
