This is happening due to aux being a reserved MS-DOS word and the only workaround is very annoying. In case we want people to contribute to PyOBJus from Windows (e.g. docs if not the code) we'll need to rename it. That folder is most likely used on one of the iOS things hopefully only under Plyer, but I guess that something would also be available under Kivy-iOS, so it'll break things and I don't have any iOS device to test it with.
