mix of Cython versions in use now, while I'm pretty sure we're supposed to
use >0.12 only:

$ grin "Cython 0."
./io/matlab/mio5_utils.c:
    1 : /* Generated by Cython 0.12.1 on Wed May 26 12:20:26 2010 */
./io/matlab/mio_utils.c:
    1 : /* Generated by Cython 0.11.3 on Wed Jun  9 11:39:04 2010 */
./io/matlab/streams.c:
    1 : /* Generated by Cython 0.11.3 on Tue Jan  5 22:26:04 2010 */
./spatial/ckdtree.c:
    1 : /* Generated by Cython 0.10.3 on Thu Mar 12 23:38:09 2009 */
./special/lambertw.c:

./special/orthogonal_eval.c:
    1 : /* Generated by Cython 0.12.1 on Mon May 31 10:17:30 2010 */
./stats/vonmises_cython.c:
    1 : /* Generated by Cython 0.10.3 on Tue Nov 17 16:14:26 2009 */

Also in r6496 (trunk) Stefan regenerated a Cython file, not sure what the
reason was. Should we regenerate everything with 0.12.1 again?
