The installation of scipy-0.9.0-r2 is blocked by sage-4.7.1-r2,
because 'emerge scipy' fails if numpy-1.5.1 and not numpy-1.6.1-r1 is
installed. But the installation of numpy-1.6.1-r1 is blocked by
sage-4.7.1-r2:
root@impala:/root(2)# emerge -pvuDN world
These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

The restriction to numpy-1.5.1 was motivated with missing clapack_*
symbols corresonding to Bug

But this issue seems to be solved now, comment 40 to Bug 371099.
I am not sure I understand your email fully. scipy-0.9.0-r2 doesn't require
numpy-1.6.1.
Indeed you cannot upgrade numpy to 1.6.1 but that doesn't prevent the
merging of
anything. It is just a version constraint. It is unfortunate but that's
the way
it is.
Do you absolutely need numpy-1.6 for something else than sage?
