Hello folks,

I did port Sage and hence Python with numpy and scipy to 64 bit OSX and 
below are some sample build instructions for just building python and 
numpy in 64 bit mode.

First try:

export OPT="-g -fwrapv -O3 -m64 -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes"
./configure --disable-toolbox-glue 
--prefix=/Users/mabshoff/64bitnumpy/python-2.5.2-bin  

<SNIP>
checking for int... yes
checking size of int... 4
checking for long... yes
checking size of long... 4
<SNIP>

Oops, make fail because of the above. Let's try again:

 ./configure --disable-toolbox-glue 
--prefix=/Users/mabshoff/64bitnumpy/python-2.5.2-bin --with-gcc="gcc -m64"

<SNIP>
checking for int... yes
checking size of int... 4
checking for long... yes
checking size of long... 8
<SNIP>

make && make install

then:

bsd:python-2.5.2-bin mabshoff$ file bin/python
bin/python: Mach-O 64-bit executable x86_64

Let's make the 64 bit python default:

bsd:64bitnumpy mabshoff$ export 
PATH=/Users/mabshoff/64bitnumpy/python-2.5.2-bin/bin/:$PATH
bsd:64bitnumpy mabshoff$ which python
/Users/mabshoff/64bitnumpy/python-2.5.2-bin/bin//python
bsd:64bitnumpy mabshoff$ file `which python`
/Users/mabshoff/64bitnumpy/python-2.5.2-bin/bin//python: Mach-O 64-bit 
executable x86_64

Let's build numpy 1.1.0:

bsd:64bitnumpy mabshoff$ tar xf numpy-1.1.0.tar.gz
bsd:64bitnumpy mabshoff$ cd numpy-1.1.0
bsd:numpy-1.1.0 mabshoff$ python setup.py install
<SNIP>

bsd:python-2.5.2-bin mabshoff$ python
Python 2.5.2 (r252:60911, Jun  4 2008, 20:47:16)
[GCC 4.0.1 (Apple Inc. build 5465)] on darwin
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
 >>> import numpy
 >>> numpy.dtype(numpy.uintp).itemsize
8
 >>> ^D
bsd:python-2.5.2-bin mabshoff$  

Voila ;)

Wi th numpy 1.0.4svn from 20080104 the numpy setup did not work since a 
conftest failed. I did report that to Stefan V. in IRC via #sage-devel 
and I also thought that this was still a problem with numpy 1.1.0, but 
fortuantely that was fixed.

Now on to the test suite:

 >>> numpy.test()

Ran 1275 tests in 1.420s

OK

I did also fixe the ctypes build in 64 bit OSX, but that is right now a 
truly horrible hack. Sage needs it for twisted, so it isn't an option. I 
will clean up my fix and post it to the python list soon [I have been 
busy with $WORK, so no clean version yet], but if anybody cares here I 
can post a simple step by step workaround. The issue here is that the 
libffi used by ctypes is way out of date and as is does not have 64 bit 
OSX support.

Hope this helps.

Congratulations on numpy 1.1.0 - I mostly lurk here, so I didn't have a 
chance yet.

Cheers,

Michael
