[firedrake] Mac install

[Homolya, Miklós]

I think this could be made automatic, thanks to the execve system call (wrapped by os.exec* in Python).

The problem here is that a different python is used to execute the script the first time than the second, so really the script needs to die after the virtualenv is created. (as suggested by Lawrence).

I fixed this by removing the firedrake directory, and re-running the script.

Dear all,
  Just attempted an install script on a clean Mac with El Capitan. After running the install script I was instructed to run it again, and got the following message:


Creating firedrake virtualenv.

ERROR: The executable firedrake/bin/python2.7 is not functioning

ERROR: It thinks sys.prefix is u'/usr/local/Cellar/python/2.7.10_2/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7' (should be u'/Users/colincotter/firedrake')

ERROR: virtualenv is not compatible with this system or executable


cheers
