Yes, a clean install works fine.  Atleast it imports fine and some of
my code runs fine.  However the tests fail after a point.  I get a
segmentation fault.  Here is the relavant segment:

Well, maybe I have to update my f2py install as well.  I might have a
broken version (I updated the cvs copy a few days back).

Is this a good time to update my f2py also?

thanks,
