After looking closer, virtualenv setup which is executed by normal user creates symlinks to python2.7 libs. Because those files are owned by root, attempt to overwrite distutils/__init__.py fails with permissions error.
Add --always-copy flag to virtualenv which copies files rather then symlinking and makes more sense here.
