One more datapoint--I am becoming suspicious that this could be an arch
problem. A colleague was able to build from source under cygwin on his
rather old laptop. However, another colleague and myself have rather new
computers and both failed (with different errors in the verbose mode). I
just tried following Michael's build instructions (incidentally, could his
last additions to setup.py be checked in to svn, along with a
profile25.batfile?) on an old windows box that we have lying around
here and it also
worked well and I was able to run the embedding_in_wx4.py example without
any problems.
The computer that I've been having all of the problems on also was
relatively clean--so, there are only two things I can think of--either some
bizarre clash with the version of numpy that I built from source off of svn
(which passed all of its tests, so I doubt it), or an arch dependence. I
have an intel quad and my colleage has a duo, so perhaps there's a problem
with computers with multiple processors? I will check the numpy issue later
today.
Thanks again,
William
