Summary:                    find_package PythonInterp and PythonLibs are not
consistent
Description: 
On mac when specifying the requested python version, the wrong paths are being
specified inconsistently.

When a specific version is requested, the paths should be taken from:

/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.X/



Steps to Reproduce: 
On mac configure this package:

cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 2.8.11)

foreach(REQUIRED_PYTHON_VERSION 2.7 2.6 2.5 )
  message(STATUS "========  LOOKING FOR ${REQUIRED_PYTHON_VERSION}
========================")
  find_package ( PythonInterp ${REQUIRED_PYTHON_VERSION} REQUIRED)
  find_package ( PythonLibs ${PYTHON_VERSION_STRING} EXACT)
  #find_package ( PythonLibs ${PYTHON_VERSION_STRING} EXACT REQUIRED )

  message(STATUS "PYTHON_EXECUTABLE:FILEPATH=${PYTHON_EXECUTABLE}")
  message(STATUS "PYTHON_LIBRARY:FILEPATH=${PYTHON_LIBRARY}")
  message(STATUS "PYTHON_INCLUDE_DIR:FILEPATH=${PYTHON_INCLUDE_DIR}")

  unset(PYTHON_EXECUTABLE CACHE)
  unset(PYTHON_LIBRARY CACHE)
  unset(PYTHON_INCLUDE_DIR CACHE)
endforeach()
