I just tested this on an x86_64 linux  box.  At first I got the
segfault, which was triggered simply by importing matplotlib._path
(which test_transforms imports).  After a bit of fiddling with the
build environment, I got a clean build and the module now imports
cleanly and the test passes.  This is a development box where I switch
between python2.5 and 2.6 for testing, and I had some trouble getting
a clean build and install -- even though I wiped the installation
directory and build dir several times I kept getting the segfault.
But because one of the settings I had changed was in my bash profile
which I had edited and re-"source"-ed, I logged out and logged back in
just to be sure my paths etc were clean.  Then I did a clean rebuild
and install and everything worked fine.  So now I am starting to think
even more that the problem on the buildbot may indeed be that the
build/install is not completely clean....
