Well, with the attached patch against current CVS (updated minutes ago), I get 
a successful build for the overall rpm with:

root at planck[scipy]# python setup.py bdist_rpm

[...]

root at planck[dist]# d
/usr/local/installers/src/scipy/dist
total 21184
-rw-r--r--  1 root 13052650 Jan 28 17:27 scipy-0.3.2_302.4556-1.i386.rpm
-rw-r--r--  1 root  2905231 Jan 28 17:26 scipy-0.3.2_302.4556-1.src.rpm
-rw-r--r--  1 root  2909055 Jan 28 17:21 scipy-0.3.2_302.4556.tar.gz
-rw-r--r--  1 root  2783499 Jan 28 17:27 scipy-debuginfo-0.3.2_302.4556-1.i386.rpm

This ONLY works if the bdist_rpm command is run straight from the scipy source 
top-level dir, but I think that's a reasonable assumption to make.

Before applying this, it should be tested on other platforms, though (though I 
did try to make the patch portable).

Cheers,
