Pillow 5.1 is broken on OS X

See original GitHub issue

When installing torch and torchvision in a clean virtualenv with python3.6 and the corresponding pip on OS X

import torchvision

leads to

torch-venv/lib/python3.6/site-packages/PIL/_imaging.cpython-36m-darwin.so, 2): Symbol not found: _clock_gettime
torch-venv/lib/python3.6/site-packages/PIL/.dylibs/liblzma.5.dylib (which was built for Mac OS X 10.12)
  Expected in: /usr/lib/libSystem.B.dylib

This is a known bug see Pillow Issue 3068

As a pytorch user it can be fixed by specifying the Pillow version in your requirements.txt

Pillow!=5.1.0
torch
torchvision

The setup.py should get updated with something like:

install_requires=['Pillow != 5.1.0 ; platform_system = "Darwin"']

@dharmeshkakadia That’s a duplicate of https://github.com/pytorch/vision/issues/1712:

We will be releasing a new version of PyTorch and torchvision early next week, so this should be soon fixed.

@vfdev-5 I can reproduce with the exact same commands you posted. Is there a suggestion on how to fix it? Happy to provide more debugging info if needed as well.
