pyproj 3.3.0 show_version() raises exception

[bal-agates]

Running the following code raises an exception. About 2 months ago this worked. Version on my computer that I am aware have changed since it last work are:

• macOS from 12.0 to 12.1
• Python from 3.9.9 to 3.9.10.
• Python setuptools from 59.4.0 to 60.5.0_0
• Cython from 0.29.24 to 0.29.26

I cannot tell if this is a pyproj problem or a Python problem.

Code Sample, a copy-pastable example if possible

import pyproj
print(pyproj.show_versions())

This is likely related the build failures we are seeing.
