Ugg. Not keen.

I do understand where you are coming from, but the approach used here is common in all the py ports... I think if you want to improve this you should come up with something better that works as part if the python PG or similar. The above is just an annoying hack.

I would rather take more computing time and resources then my time manually doing `port livecheck py-virtualenv` and the other ones. My time is much more valuable than 4 times the number of HTTP requests.
