This is always worth checking ;).  Particularly if it was a few Setuptools 
releases ago.  Also worth checking: ~/Library/Python.

SIP locks down /System, not /Library.

This should be an _absolute_ last resort, though.  You should be able to clean 
out /Library just fine.  If you have a /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework, 
that's probably Python.org <http://python.org/> python, not system python.
