Installed FreeTDS on Mac OS X 10.9 Mavericks using `brew install freetds`.

Created a requirements.txt file in my project with the following line:

pymssql>=2.0.0

Executed pip using the following arguments:

pip install --upgrade -r requirements.txt

Got the following output and error:

I ran into the same thing installing version 2.0.0 on RHEL 6. I was able work 
around the problem by creating an empty ChangeLog_highlights.rst file.  I 
suppose this is no help when using brew though.

    pip install -b build pymssql=2.0.0
    cd build/pymssql
    touch ChangeLog_highlights.rst
    python setup.py build
