I created a new virtualenv and pip-installed virtualenv and again it
works for me:

hpk at noco:~/p/tox$ tox --recreate -e py31 --notest
_____________________________ [tox sdist] _____________________________
[TOX] ***creating sdist package
[TOX] /Users/hpk/p/tox$ /Users/hpk/venv/1/bin/python setup.py sdist --formats=zip --dist-dir .tox/dist >.tox/log/0.log
[TOX] ***copying new sdistfile to '/Users/hpk/.tox/distshare/tox-1.2.zip'

[TOX] /Users/hpk/p/tox/.tox$ /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.1/bin/python3.1 /Users/hpk/venv/1/lib/python2.7/site-packages/virtualenv.py --no-site-packages py31 >py31/log/0.log
...

It also uses the virtualenv.py like it did in your version.
This is virtualenv-1.6.4.  Can you create a new virtualenv and try
to reproduce the problem on your side?

best,
