[1.35] ebook-edit - syntax highlighting does not work on Mac OS X 10.9.2

[Robert Błaut]

I don't know if it is system specific bug, but I noticed in all of my books I checked so far that syntax highlighting in ebook-edit does not work completely. All code lines are black. Terminal displays no suspicious messages:
performance, only use PostScript names when calling this API.

It looks like an OS X specific bug in PyQt, weakref is not working with
QTextDocument on OS X, for some reason, I will see if I can work around it.
