I'm getting a segfault if I try to evaluate something after I run the
test suite from the interpreter. E.g.

..........................................................................................................................
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Ran 122 tests in 0.909s

OK
<unittest.TextTestRunner object at 0x58ebf0>
>>> 1
zsh: segmentation fault  python

The stack trace:

Also, when I run the tests from the command line (python -c "import
scipy; scipy.test(10,10)"), I get a segfault in the middle of the test run:

check_scalar
(scipy.base.function_base.test_function_base.test_vectorize) ... ok
check_simple
(scipy.base.function_base.test_function_base.test_vectorize) ... ok
check_matrix (scipy.base.twodim_base.test_twodim_base.test_diag) ...
zsh: segmentation fault  python -c "import scipy; scipy.test(10,10)"

with this stack trace:

Thread 0 Crashed:
0   org.python.python 	0x1003ee8c PyObject_Malloc + 88 (obmalloc.c:605)

Running test_twodim_base.py from the command line gives no error, nor
does running test_basic.py .
