The innards of _tableio doesn't use NumPy at all.  All it does is
tokenize a file, run atof on it and return a list.  The list is
stuffed into a dictionary and there certainly could be some
weirdness in my reference counting there, but I've never
experienced the sort of problem that Demers reports.  NumPy is
used in a python wrapper to convert the list to an array.

Maybe Hugues Demers would post the offending code for us to look
at?
