I've applied your patch to my local repository. It will be in the next release (later this summer).

I noticed that you also sent in a patch to the pip maintainer that got accepted. That's the right
place to fix this issue (they had assumptions about the contents of setup.py that aren't true), 
I'm applying this patch anyway because pyobjc should be installable even when users have
an older version of pip.

Thanks for the patch,
