I'm not really familiar with manylinux1, but I'd be concerned if we
started getting bug reports on pip because we installed a library that
claimed to be manylinux1 and was failing because it wasn't. (And yes,
packaging errors like this are a common source of pip bug reports).

It seems to me that it's defeating the purpose of having standards if
people aren't willing to follow them...
