Hello,

When trying to use paver.virtual.bootstrap from version 1.1.0, I get this error:

```
File "/usr/local/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/Paver-1.0.5-py2.6.egg/paver/virtual.py", line 53, in _create_bootstrap
bootstrap_contents = virtualenv.create_bootstrap_script(extra_text)
AttributeError: 'function' object has no attribute 'create_bootstrap_script'
```

It seems that the virtualenv decorator is clashing with the virtualenv import in that file. So I have renamed the decorator to get around that.

Also, when trying to run paver.virtual.bootstrap, it attempts to install paver version 1.1.0 which is not reachable using easy_install. The highest version easy_install can find is 1.0.5. This is the output:

```
paver bootstrap
---> pavement.bootstrap
---> paver.virtual.bootstrap
Write bootstrap script test/bootstrap.py
cd test; /usr/bin/python2.6 bootstrap.py
New python executable in ./bin/python2.6
Also creating executable in ./bin/python

Searching for paver==1.1.0
Reading http://pypi.python.org/simple/paver/
Reading http://www.blueskyonmars.com/projects/paver/
Reading http://paver.github.com/
No local packages or download links found for paver==1.1.0
```

Is there something that I am doing wrong? I would like to keep using version 1.1.0 as the virtualenv decorator is very useful.

Thank you!
