[Matrix-SIG] Build problem under Solaris 2.6

[Lee Taylor]

Make sure you're using the new version of arrayobject.h.
It is now in directory Numeric instead of numeric.

I usually use:
#include "Numeric/arrayobject.h"

instead of:
#include "arrayobject.h"
and then use -I$(prefix)/include/python1.5/Numeric on the compile line.
