[Numpy-discussion] scipy 0.7.1rc2 released

[Matthieu Brucher]

Good luck with fixing this then :|

I've tried to build scipy with the MKL and ATLAS, and I have in both
cases a segmentation fault. With the MKL, it is the same as in a
previous mail, and for ATLAS it is there:
Regression test for #946. ... Segmentation fault

A bad ATLAS compilation?
