Summary:                    FindPythonInterp.cmake searches for the newest
python executable
Description: 
The current FindPythonInterp.cmake file by default searches for the newest
python version. Because it is possible to install different version of python
and per default to use not the newest installed one this approach is often not
correct.

Additional Information: 
My patch is against current master
