I am sorry. I followed your suggestion. I re-checked out the svn folder and then compiled with $ python setup.py build_src --inplace build_ext --inplace but I get the same behaviour. If I am inside I get the NameError, if I am outside and use path.insert, it successfully performs zero tests.
I have tried with numpy-1.3 with sys.path.insert and it works. I re-implemented the same patch for 1.3 and it passes all 2030 tests. http://projects.scipy.org/numpy/ticket/1237 I think the speed improvement is impressive. Thanks. I still wonder why I am unable to make the tests work with the svn version.
