With the recent CVS one can disable Scipy modules by adding their
names to ignore_packages list at the end of setup.py file.
Or create a customized setup file similar to setup_no_chaco.py.
For example, create setup_osx.py file containing:

  from setup import setup_package
  ignore_packages = ['chaco','kiva','freetype','traits', 'sparse']
  if __name__ == "__main__":
      setup_package(ignore_packages)

and then use it instead of setup.py.
