Well. What I was prepared to do to fix this problem was to apply a patch that 
had previously been created by one of our developers, and had been accepted by 
the developers of PyObjC. The same code is present in the current PyObjC 
distributed by its developers. I'm not prepared to further analyze their code 
to understand how it works and to understand your proposal for changing it. You 
are welcome to take up any further desired changes with the developers of 
PyObjC. If they make any changes that are important to py27 and py35 as well we 
can back-port them.
