Have you tried building them with setuptools, using the numpy
distutils 'build_ext' command, using:
setup(
cmdclass = dict(build_ext = numpy_build_ext_class_here),
ext_modules = list_of_Extension_objects,
...
)
Unless there is a radical difference between numpy distutils and the
regular distutils, you should be able to do this. Just find numpy's
"build_ext" class, and define the appropriate Extension() objects
(for the things to build) in your setup script. Setuptools will then
delegate the building to numpy, but handle the installing itself.
Again, this is assuming that numpy's distutils extensions don't do
anything unfriendly like completely redefine how extension objects
work or assume that their commands will be only mixed with other
numpy commands. (Setuptools doesn't make such assumptions, and tries
to leave the normal distutils stuff alone as much as possible.)
