Happy to know ``setuptools`` support pleases you!  However, this is more
of an internal way to ease our development, and it is absolutely *not
intended for general use*, at least until Numarray supports it.  Please
note it is not even documented in the manual!

Having said that, I use a little trick to avoid the problem with
Numarray headers.  Basically, I have an ordinary, system-wide install of
Numarray besides my local, egg-based one.  The headers used when
building PyTables are those from the global install, which does not seem
to cause problems even when both versions of Numarray differ (though I
would not play too much with that fact).

Good luck,
