Four unit tests fail, or all fail except four? I assume you meant the former. I'm not sure what the failures mean, can you check if they are really bad or just some numbers a little bit off. I'm guessing these routines are calling into MKL. > > How are the .src files converted? > The *.xxx.src files are templates that are processed by numpy/distutils/conv_template.py to produce *.xxx files. When you have to repeat basically the same code with umpteen different types a bit of automation helps. The actual conversion is controlled by the setup/scons files, I don't remember exactly where.
