I think pip and virtualenv is included with python 2.7.9 an above..
https://pip.pypa.io/en/stable/installing/

pip included with Python

Python 2.7.9 and later (on the python2 series), and Python 3.4 and later
include pip by default [1] <https://pip.pypa.io/en/stable/installing/#id7>,
so you may have pip already.

See above.  That said, a single file scons "binary" with packages included
would be nice for projects which use scons and don't want to have to
require their developers to have to install it separately ( equivalent to
scons-local install)
