I'm starting to suspect this is a bug in the unit test, not the building 
of numpy. The unit test complains:
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File 
"/astro/users/rowen/local/lib/python/numpy/testing/decorators.py", line 
146, in skipper_func
    return f(*args, **kwargs)
  File 
"/astro/users/rowen/local/lib/python/numpy/linalg/tests/test_build.py", 
line 50, in test_lapack
    information.""")
AssertionError: Both g77 and gfortran runtimes linked in lapack_lite ! 
This is likely to

but when I run ldd on numpy/linalg/lapack_lite.so I get:
-bash-3.2$ ldd 
/astro/users/rowen/local/lib/python/numpy/linalg/lapack_lite.so 
   linux-vdso.so.1 =>  (0x00007fff0cff0000)
   liblapack.so.3 => /usr/lib64/liblapack.so.3 (0x00002acadd738000)
   libblas.so.3 => /usr/lib64/libblas.so.3 (0x00002acadde42000)
   libgfortran.so.3 => /usr/lib64/libgfortran.so.3 (0x00002acade096000)
   libm.so.6 => /lib64/libm.so.6 (0x00002acade380000)
   libgcc_s.so.1 => /lib64/libgcc_s.so.1 (0x00002acade604000)
   libc.so.6 => /lib64/libc.so.6 (0x00002acade812000)
   libgfortran.so.1 => /usr/lib64/libgfortran.so.1 (0x00002acadeb6a000)
   /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (0x0000003b2ba00000)

The build instructions say (sic):
One relatively simple and reliable way to check for the compiler used to 
build a library is to use ldd on the library. If libg2c.so is a 
dependency, this means that g77 has been used. If libgfortran.so is a a 
dependency, gfortran has been used. If both are dependencies, this means 
both have been used, which is almost always a very bad idea.

I don't see any sign of libg2c.so.

Is there some other evidence that numpy/linalg/lapack_lite.so is build 
against both g77 and gfortran, or is the unit test result wrong or...?
