Hello,

I ran some compatibility tests on Windows, using 
numpy-MKL-1.7.x.dev.win-amd64-py2.7 with packages built against 
numpy-MKL-1.6.2.

There are new test failures in scipy, bottleneck, pymc, and mvpa2 of the 
following types:

IndexError: too many indices
ValueError: negative dimensions are not allowed

The test results are at 
<http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/tests/20120916-win-amd64-py2.7-numpy-MKL-1.7.0rc1.dev-50f71cb/>
