[PyQt] [Bug] PyQt5 version 5.7.0 OS X.11.4 (El Capitan) MenuBar requires defocus + refocus of app to work

[Maxwell Grady]

This is python 3.5 from Anaconda (isolated in a conda env) with PyQt
installed through pip.
By default a conda env doesn't come with pythonw but I guess I could
symlink the file from the main conda install or just run 'conda install
python.app'

I can check if that change's anything on Monday.
