Has anybody any experiences about compiling latest numpy version (1.0b4)
under a SGI IRIX 6.5 environment? Numpy is a numerical enhancement of
python. I'm using the mipspro 7.2.x and gcc 3.4.6 compiler and python
2.4.3 (self compiled). First I thought problems are coming from lacking
c99 support in mipspro compiler. The gcc should compile this code
without problems because under linux the version with gcc 3.4.x doesn´t
make any problems.

Can somebody explain me, what�s going wrong. It seems there is some
header files missing.
