I believe the older pyobjc-1.4 download was just a tar image from the
source tree.  The current download page:

    http://pyobjc.sourceforge.net/downloads.html

has a pointer to the 1.4 source branch at:

    http://svn.red-bean.com/pyobjc/branches/pyobjc-1.4-branch

So, if you want 1.4, just grab a copy of that branch, and then use the
setup.py to build it.  Grabbing a copy is probably simplest with a
command line svn tool via:

    svn export http://svn.red-bean.com/pyobjc/branches/pyobjc-1.4-branch

which will give you the tree in a pyobjc-1.4-branch directory beneath
where you run the command.

Note when I built it a while back, I modified setup.py to set
AUTO_UNIVERSAL to 1 to generate a universal binary version.  If you're
just building on and targeting newer Intel Macs, probably no need to
do that.

I believe you can install directly from setup, but I used bdist_mpkg
to generate an OSX-compatible installer package first and then
installed that.
