NumPy installation won't import correctly

I installed NumPy for python 2.6 on my leopard macbook, using the
nifty mac installer they now provide. I have the 2.6 official python
distro installed on my computer, in addition to the 2.5 that is native
on the mac. When I went to test out the installation, with 2.6, it
gave me this:

>>> import numpy
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
  File "/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/lib/
python2.6/site-packages/numpy/__init__.py", line 132, in <module>

  File "/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/lib/

    import multiarray
ImportError: dlopen(/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/
lib/python2.6/site-packages/numpy/core/multiarray.so, 2): no suitable
image found.  Did find:
	/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/lib/python2.6/site-
packages/numpy/core/multiarray.so: unknown required load command
0x80000022

The file that it claims it can't find a suitable image for does in
fact exist in that directory. I'm stumped.

Funny thing is, when I imported it using python2.5, it worked just
fine. numpy.test(1,10) ran without a hitch.

Thanks for the help. Please redirect me if this question belongs
elsewhere.
