What's even more silly is building Python manually first, then 
doing `homebrew update` (taking 290 secs!) before brewing ninja 
and Python again (the latter not working). If you just need 
homebrew for Ninja, then do yourself a favor and download the 
prebuilt 
https://github.com/ninja-build/ninja/releases/download/v1.8.2/ninja-mac.zip, that's what we do for LDC CI too. This `homebrew update` is ridiculous, at least for Travis.
