hi gen,

have you tried the compiler designed specifically for the opteron rather
than the intel?
you can download it here:

http://developer.amd.com/acml.jsp

don't know if it will get rid of any of your errors or if it will help
compile scipy, but it may be worth a try anyway.

 Hi! All,

I have a dual opteron 285 with 8G ram machine. And I ran FC6 x86_64 on
that. I did manage to get numpy (from svn) compiled by using icc 9.1.0.45and mkl
9.0 ( got 3 errors when I ran the est). But no such luck for scipy (from
svn). Below is the error:

Lib/special/cephes/mconf.h(137): remark #193: zero used for undefined

  #if WORDS_BIGENDIAN  /* Defined in pyconfig.h */
      ^

build/temp.linux-x86_64-2.4/Lib/special/cephes/const.o"
failed with exit status 2

Did anyone has a solution for this?

BTW, the 3 error I got from numpy are:

Are these error serious??

Or maybe I should get back to gcc? Anyone got a good speed up by using icc
and mkl?
