I returned to this task.

After some minor tweaks discussed here earlier, the build appears to
succeed.  There are two issues.  Issue 1 is, to me, of unknown
significance; it does not prevent the build.

Issue 2 is that numpy can't be imported.  There are problems with newdocs,
type_check and numerictypes.

The symptoms are shown below.


Issue 1.

creating build/temp.aix-5.2-2.4/build/src/numpy/core/src
compile options: '-Ibuild/src/numpy/core/src -Inumpy/core/include
-Ibuild/src/numpy/core -Inumpy/core/src -Inumpy/core/include
-I/mydirectory/include/python2.4 -c'
cc_r: build/src/numpy/core/src/umathmodule.c
"build/src/numpy/core/src/umathmodule.c", line 9307.32: 1506-280 (W)
Function argument assignment between types "long double*" and "double*" is
not allowed.

Issue 2.
