This fails because numpy uses the function `cacosh` from the libm and on RHEL6 this function has a bug. As long as you don't care about getting the sign right at the branch cut in this function, then it's harmless. If you do care, the easiest solution will be to install something like anaconda that does not link against the relatively old libm that RHEL6 ships.
