Build from PyPi fails because of missing 'hid.c' #7

When I try to install hidapi from PyPi using pip, the compilation fails because it cannot find hid.c:

$ pip install hidapi

I also ran in to this issue, on Mac OS X (10.9.5). This occurred when using the PyPi package through pip, as well as when trying to build from source (using trezor's branch). I was able to resolve it by upgrading setuptools, like so:

[sudo] pip install setuptools --upgrade

Thank you spacenate. Upgrading setuptools also resolved this issue for me.
