setup: loosen requirement on simplejson to >= 1.4

That's the version of simplejson that comes with ubuntu feisty, and the one that we've required for most of our history.  Currently the Ubuntu dapper buildslave fails (see issue #534), and setting the simplejson requirement to be >= 2.0 would fix that failure, but I don't understand why.
