Point taken. I don't use Windows too much and I don't use the Intel 
compiler any more (it's not free for non-commercial use :)  ).

I tried using "--compiler=gcc --fcompiler=pg" and I get the same answer 
at the very end.


running build_ext
error: don't know how to compile C/C++ code on platform 'posix' with 
'gcc' compiler


Good point about f2py. I'm using the Anaconda distribution of f2py and 
that may have limitations with respect to the PGI compiler. I may 
download the f2py source and build it to include PGI support. Maybe that 
will fix the problem.

Thanks!

Jeff
