[SciPy-dev] numpy 1.3.0 import error

[Forrest Sheng Bao]

Hi David,

Thanks for your reply. Please allow me ask a dummy question. How does
setup.py script know which compiler to use? Thru environmental variables?
Any where I can specify the compiler in setup.py or other configuration file
before building?

Cheers,
Forrest
