Check for termcolor issues #2

Probably has something to do with the ._pth file

Termcolor does from termcolor import VERSION which imports a file relative to setup.py. This does not work when ._pth is present because pip spawns a subprocess and (ironically) that makes the subprocess be spawned in isolated mode as well (as it should!)
