I knew there had to be a better way than resorting to easy_install, and
it looks like the "official" way to get pip if it...

a) isn't included as a part of the python version installed

b) isn't available from the package manager (or isn't usable, in this
case)

... is to use the get-pip.py script, which includes a zipped copy of it.

Normally I'd never install a python module without using dpkg/apt or
with pip inside a virtualenv, but this is a bit of a special case
installing pip itself to replace an unusable packaged version.
