Is NumPy stricter in its checking because of SPARC? SPARC?!?
yes, before the change numpy accepted a factor 10 performance regression in complex indexing to satisfy sparc. > > Dozens of f2py compiled extensions are going to fail soon here - which > I'll reluctantly check tomorrow.

Either the one thing that is broken in scipy isn't much used or windows 32 users aren't using 1.9 yet. The majority of f2py should still be working, numpys own f2py testsuite passes on win32. I still don't know what exactly arpack is doing different but I also did not have time yet to look at the testcase david created. It should of course be fixed, I have an old branch with aligned allocators lying around somewhere which should fix the issue or at least give users a way to work around it. _______________________________________________ NumPy-Discussion mailing list NumPy-Discussion@scipy.org http://mail.scipy.org/mailman/listinfo/numpy-discussion
