[Numpy-discussion] Inquiry Regarding F2PY Windows Content

[Carl, Andrew F (AS)]

Got gfortran (dated 2009-04-21) working w/ python 2.5.2, numpy 1.3.0 &
MinGW 5.1.4, and after removing the intel fortran system environmental
variables (plus six python installs, a intel fortran uninstall, and a
day and a half of head scratching).

I was able to get gfortran working on Windows just a few weeks ago. The
only problem I had was that I needed Python >= 2.5.3 before it would
work. See issue #2234 in
http://www.python.org/download/releases/2.5.4/NEWS.txt
