I was getting issues installing sasl==0.3.1:

  Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
    File "/private/var/folders/81/kqvp0vjx63gfg5cbczsprwp00000gp/T/pip-install-4567bfnx/sasl_c72464a3686149948899242d98362bd1/setup.py", line 35, in <module>
      python_target = LooseVersion(
    File "/usr/local/Cellar/[email protected]/3.8.9/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.8/lib/python3.8/distutils/version.py", line 304, in __init__
      self.parse(vstring)
    File "/usr/local/Cellar/[email protected]/3.8.9/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.8/lib/python3.8/distutils/version.py", line 312, in parse
      components = [x for x in self.component_re.split(vstring)
  TypeError: expected string or bytes-like object

The specific source of the problem is that get_config_var('MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET') was returning the integer 11

This is a bug that was shipped in Python3.8 and Python3.9: https://bugs.python.org/issue42504

The comment above this section of code references a code pattern from Pandas. Pandas also experienced this bug
and fixed it here: pandas-dev/pandas#38766

This commit implements the same fix.

As a workaround while this is prepped for release, I was able to export MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET=11
prior to running the install so that it skipped over the broken code.
