For what it's worth, the SciPy-0.6.0 tarball seems to work with the
current NumPy trunk without much trouble on my Linux machine.  The
tests emit a lot of DeprecationWarnings, and 5 tests fail (but 3 of
those fail with the SciPy trunk as well).  The two tests that fail
under 0.6.0 but not the trunk are:

test_fromimage (scipy.tests.test_pilutil.test_pilutil)
check_rvs (scipy.stats.tests.test_distributions.test_rv_discrete)
