[BUG] Colab notebook broken on newer Julia versions

[MilesCranmer]

I see this error when trying the colab notebook on newer Julia versions:

Installing PyCall.jl...
  Installing known registries into `~/.julia`
ERROR: could not download https://pkg.julialang.org/registry/23338594-aafe-5451-b93e-139f81909106/1688f52d42fdeb191fb40e264179f68c65500be3

ErrorException("`ccall` requires the compiler")

Other Julia notebooks are seeing the same error on the latest colab notebook with Julia 1.8.5: johnnychen94/colab-julia-bootstrap#4.

Seems to be broken for all Julia versions above or equal to 1.8.4.
